About this event
Kaleidoscope is a curated and juried design exhibition that offers a diverse and dynamic showcase of creative talents, including undergraduate students in the Pre-Graphic Design (PGDE), industrial design (INDD), and graphic design (GDES) programs, as well as graduate students in the Master of Industrial Design (MID) program. At every turn of this event, a fresh perspective on the work of students in the School of Industrial and Graphic Design (SIGD) unfolds, spanning all levels of their educational journey.
This event not only highlights outstanding student projects from recent semesters but also transforms the entire school environment into a lively exhibition space. Each classroom becomes a canvas for presenting a diverse array of student projects in both industrial and graphic design, showcasing the broad spectrum of participants and their creative endeavors. Representing a comprehensive range of expertise, from beginners to advanced learners, the exhibition is carefully curated by SIGD faculty and evaluated by a panel of 25 design professionals, ensuring a high standard of quality and creativity across all levels of student work, and a thorough and inclusive experience for all attendees.
