The first week of a new semester and a new beginning for the team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week, the team met for the first time to begin discussing ideas for this project. We had our first instructor meeting and introduced ourselves to the client, the Heinz History Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this trip, we got to see some of the client’s current exhibitions and get a good sense of how they represent themselves. After the trip, we held a second meeting with the client to establish some basic parameters of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
