Mainstage Presentation
1. Finding the Sunny Side: Design in California Then and Now
Louise Sandhaus, Graphic Designer and Educator

Louise Sandhaus, author of the seminal book on California graphic design history, Earthquakes, Mudslides, Fires & Riots: California and Graphic Design, 1936-1986 celebrates resilience, reinvention, and imagination in times of upheaval and change. Louise will share the tangents of her work as a California designer and observations about the state’s design past to consider how alternative visions lead to other possibilities for design—and for our lives.
