Thanks for following along with us this past week as we shared a peek into the magic of Design Camp!
We’re endlessly grateful to everyone who makes this program possible, from our incredible staff, to the College of Design’s Facilities crew, Materials Lab, Student Services, and the amazing alumni who gave their time and stories.
