Of nearly 1,000submissions, 242 were acceptedand only 20 overallwere recognized as “Outstanding.”The AIGA (the professionalassociation for design)Toledo team was ledby Jenn Stucker, an assistantprofessor of graphic designin the School of Art, as creativedirector and projectmanager.The Creative ProductionTeam included graphic designinstructor Amy Fidler(who is also a BGSUalumna) and alumni artistsBen Morales and Zach Zollar,along with fellow designerMatt Rowland.Their challenge was toenhance awareness aboutToledo and create a strongersense of place, both for visitorsto the city during lastsummer’s InternationalGlass Arts Society conferenceand also for Toledo residents.In the process they employednot only graphic designbut mobile technologyand a “collect the dots” contestfor participants.AIGA Toledo had partneredwith the Arts Commissionin previous years tobring attention to the artsand the city, using bannersand window displays. Butthis time, instead of promptingpeople to look up, theteam wanted them to lookdown.They devised a plan toemulate the “You are here”dots sometimes found ontourist maps. “Using the circularshape of a dot (at threefeet in diameter), 100 northwestOhio artists, designersand students were asked tomake a powerful visualstatement in response totheir assigned dot’s location,”Ms. Stucker wrote inthe case study for the project.Of the 100, 38 wereBGSU alumni, students orfaculty from the School ofArt, including Fidler andStucker plus Kim Adams,Todd Childers, Linda Sattler,Sara Schleicher, and LoriYoung.“Toledo is known as theGlass City for its rich historyin glass innovation, andmany of the locations for theproject were chosen to highlightthat history,” said Ms.Stucker. “Our research ledus to relevant locations suchas the Libbey Glass Outlet,The Libbey House, OwensCorning, The Toledo Museumof Art and Glass Pavilionand the Blair Museum ofLithophanes, to name a few.“The project was unique toToledo and showcased theamazing artistic talent andplaces of this region.”In addition to viewing thedots, smartphone userscould click on a QR (quickresponse) code that tookthem to an informative siteabout the history of the location,the art and the artist.The first 100 people to “collect”25 dots received a specialedition silk-screenedposter. The mobile app wasdeveloped by Hanson Inc.For non-smartphoneusers, each dot featured theproject’s URL so they couldlearn more about the work attheir convenience.The team enlisted thehelp of citizens, including librariansand historians, tocompile the informationabout each site, which expandedthe sense of “ownership”and enthusiasm for“You Are Here.”“My favorite aspect wasthe amazing responses wegot from Toledoans, who fellin love with their city allover again. Some residentswere getting smartphonesjust so they could participatein collecting the dots,” saidMs. Stucker.“You Are Here” waswidely covered in the pressand Ms. Stucker presented itat the national AIGA leadershipconference.Class of 1956plans reunionThe Macomber/Whitneyclass of 1956 will hold its57 year reunion on July 27at Bayview Yacht Club, at 4p.m.Graduates of 1953through 1959 are invited toattend.For reservations, callDave Czajka at 419-385-2292 or 419-699-1532.
