Eramosa Institute is presenting The Guelph Lecture—On Being this May as a part of ArtsEverywhere Festival. They have a great lineup this year, including Cory Doctorow, and a new logo!

Eramosa Institute This institute is being reinvigorated with a new logo, expanding its role as a non-partisan, non-polarizing, and research-based platform for thoughtful civic engagement.

I spent the first two weeks of January “in” jail—working on an exhibition called "Darkness and Light: Inside the Ontario Reformatory" for Guelph Museums. This included designing the wordmark and panels as well as creating a 7.6 x 6 m floor map that was to be “hand-drawn—more illustration than schematic / more human than institution.” The history of this place is fascinating and multi-faceted—especially important to the many Indigenous survivors of the residential school programs, who created art and persevered to reclaim their stolen heritage. Drop by the Guelph Civic Museum for a look!

A big shoutout to my friends at Sign Art Centre of Guelph Inc, who handled this huge, time-sensitive production with aplomb!

This was a fun, challenging project—applying a colourful The Foundation of Guelph General Hospital brand update by The Letter M to a number of in-hospital promotions, including these elevator wraps. Our goal was to make patients aware that the equipment their nurses and doctors are using is funded by donations—even stretchers. I suggest that this is a good place to donate your $200 Ontario Government cheques, if you can afford to. (I would argue that "universal" health care should not be dependent on the wealth of each community. And why is the government handing out money when our health care system is so clearly inadequate?)
