OPENING NITE

The official reception for the 2012 SDS was held Tuesday Evening (Apr. 24). The event was well attended with a nice size spillover crowd into the Commons area! The delicious food (prepared by the Culinary Arts program) and Beautiful Floral arrangements (Floral Design Program) added to a wonderful and memorable evening.

Please remember that the show will continue to be exhibited until May 3rd (May 4th begins the takedown phase). This website will continue to provide information after the show is officially taken down, and will serve as a virtual gallery for  the pieces until the next show (SDS XV in 2013). We welcome all of our buisness and community partners to check in until then.

HAVE PHOTOS OF THE OPENING NITE FESTIVITIES? Wish to share them on the website? Send them to Peter Pham. Pending review for content, we may post it on this sight.

2012 Show Promotional Materials

Graphic Communications Students in capstone classes taught by Michelle Quinn and John Mizer generated concepts for this year’s show promotion. Gateway marketing employees, Art Directors from regional design businesses, and district business owners were all solicited for feedback on which concept they  liked best.

While all of the concepts received high praise from the outside judges,  this years Invitation as selected by the impromptu panel was created by Ms. Dulce Velazquez. Dulce’s design will be used to generate posters, mailers, and a promotional video for this years show.

A rough-cut promotional video based on Dulce’s design was also created, and is currently viewable here (see embed below) as well as on YOUTUBE.
