In this event, Kelli Anderson will discuss her approach to design as a form of joyful inquiry—where making things
is not just about creating objects, but about discovering how things work. The session
will conclude with a modular alphabet drawing activity, inviting participants to build playful letterforms and experiment with design systems.
This event welcomes students across disciplines—graphic design, education, communication, creative writing, STEM, and the social sciences—as well as teachers, parents, and anyone interested in how creativity fuels understanding. Free and open to the public.
