EVERY DAY Illustrations: ART 322A at CSUN

Posters designed by CSUN students in ART 322A illustrating themes from Every Day by David Levithan

Students in Professor Laurel Long's spring 2015 illustration class designed cover art to reflect themes in Every Day, the 2015-2016 Freshman Common Reading at CSUN.  Look for the full-size posters in offices around campus in the fall.  Bookmarks based on the last of the designs pictured here (by Lauren Eddie Gierard) will be available beginning in late August 2015.

Congratulations to the seven students whose works were selected for this project:  

  • Adrienne Kinsella
  • Amri Anariba
  • Colin Johns
  • Emma Zakarian
  • Rebecca Barmaan
  • John Lawrence
  • Lauren Eddie Gierard
