MARCIA LAUSEN: ELECTION DESIGN REFORM

Department of Art + Design, Art History, Art Education Lectures
Center for the Arts Harold J. Kaplan Concert Hall
Thursday, September 25, 6:30 p.m.

The confusing ballots in the 2000 presidential election called for designers, researchers and policy-makers to drastically improve election design. Marcia Lausen answered that call as the advisor for Design for Democracy, a strategic initiative of the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA). Design for Democracy advocates for the use of design to increase civic participation by making interactions between the U.S. government and its citizens more understandable, efficient and trustworthy. Lausen presents a lecture on election design reform. Co-sponsored by the Baltimore Chapter of the AIGA.

Admission is free.
