3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Ohio Union U.S. Bank Conference Theater

Technological change is remaking our world at a nearly incomprehensible pace. Artists and designers are uniquely positioned to reframe and shape how this change is encountered because their work directly engages us as humans. 

This event is free and open to the public. We ask that you kindly RSVP using the updated form below, but registration is not required to attend the lecture. Seating will be on a first come, first served basis.
