Charlottesville DESIGN MARATHON!
On Friday October 10, the CCDC will host Charlottesville's first design marathon. Teams of local designers and students will provide design services ranging from branding to site planning for ten local non-profit organizations - free of charge!
Non-profits will be chosen based on their needs, project type, and potential community impact, among other criteria. The marathon will be followed by a November CCDC exhibition of the designs produced throughout the day. To download an application or learn more about the event, click here!

Exhibit | Asylum & Acceptance - During the summer of 2007, Michael Keller documented the experiences, hopes, and dreams of mothers, fathers, students, political activists, gardeners, soccer players, and entrepreneurs who have joined Charlottesville through the aide of the International Rescue Committee. A recipient of the Davis Peace Prize and a senior at College of the Atlantic, Keller intends to foster a spirit of acceptance as well as recognize the struggle of asylum seekers to pursue peace as they confront new customs and cultural tensions. His work, including interviews with several community members, will be on display through August.
