Please join us next Wednesday, February 10th from 4:00-5:30pm PST for an interactive workshop, “change default settings: how design thinking is a rebrand for white supremacy” with Darin Buzon.

Darin will discuss how the current state of design is simply a digitally updated status quo. When the default is white, how can design as a “neutral” tool serve anything but whiteness? Students will be guided to experiment on “changing their default settings” and explore together how we want our “default settings” to authentically be and be seen.

Open to all ArtCenter Students

RSVP by February 9th at Noon
