Brit Rowe, associate professor in art & design at Ohio Northern University, will be in Hawaii in January.

He  was selected to present at the International Conference on Arts & Humanities organized by the University of Hawaii. The conference is Jan. 9–12, in Honolulu.

The conference’s main goal is to provide an opportunity for academicians and professionals from various arts and humanities related fields from all over the world to come together with cross-disciplinary interests to meet, interact, and learn with members inside and outside their own particular disciplines.

Rowe’s presentation, titled Community-Based Graphic Design, examines how graphic designers use their skills and knowledge to draw attention to the problem of hunger and/or food insecurity in our local schools by using various strategies for community-based graphic design.
