Great Ideas: Students for the Future

May 9 – 29, 2024

Design Museum of Chicago
72 E Randolph St
Chicago, IL 60601

 

Inspired by the Design Museum’s exhibition series, Great Ideas of Humanity, designers who apply and who are chosen to design by the jury are prompted to take a “great idea” or inspirational quote and create a visual poster as a response. These posters can’t advertise products, but should instead highlight a message — making the world a better place through thoughtful design.

This show is an extension this series, intended for rising designers rather than established professionals.

Many thanks to our printing sponsor, Chicago Event Graphics!
