In collaboration with the Ames History Museum, the Graphic Design Social Club designed a 20 ft x 8 ft to hang on the side of the Museum in Downtown Ames to celebrate key Black figures from Ames' history.


In addition to the printed banner, the project included an Augmented Reality layer that allows viewer to watch a motion graphics piece explaining more about who each person featured on the banner is and the contribution they made to Ames.


The project involved students from all 3 levels of the undergrad program.
