Prototype Posters
Prototyping an idea or a mock up of an idea is part of the design process. It allows for input and testing out an idea before it is complete to improve the design, just as drafting and redrafting a paper improves writing.
The posters summarize prototypes of the four priority project areas. The posters themselves are prototypes too.
Draft Mini-posters will be shared at the June 16, 2022 Music Festival in Warren for input and online participation.
Another draft of the mini-posters will be presented at the July 14, 2022 Music Festival
Finally, larger posters and other exhibit items will be shared at the Marshall County Fair July 20-24, 2022 for more public input.
