Hired as a freelance designer, I was tasked with creating a new edition of State of the Arts, the university’s biannual arts magazine distributed across campus and to alumni. The 20-page publication celebrates the vibrant arts community at Brandeis while highlighting upcoming performances, exhibitions, and creative achievements. Layouts were designed to balance editorial content and imagery to capture the energy and diversity of the Brandeis arts scene. This edition served as both a celebration of campus creativity and a key communication piece connecting alumni to the university’s cultural life.
