One of the many potential desired outcomes of design can be to motivate or inspire. Student designers have the power to encourage viewers to move forward in their lives—toward big dreams and lifelong goals or by simply enjoying the beauty that surrounds us.
This year, the Moving Forward student poster design contest helps promote positive thinking by enabling students to design an original poster for print or online use. We welcomed entries as part of a class assignment or done independently by students outside of class.
Of the 134 entries received, we awarded a first place, a second place, and eight honorable mentions.
Entries were be reviewed by a panel of design educators:
