This past weekend, the Evansville Design Group (EDG) hosted an event, "Logo Day" at cMoe! At the event, kids designed logos for fictional businesses, designed their own business cards, played logo guessing games, and more. EDG is a not-for-profit organization formed to promote education, networking, and
enrichment within and among the local design community. cMoe is excited to be partnering with EDG to offer arts education to our patrons! Check out some of the fun we had!

One of the activities at Logo Day was a create your own business card craft. We loved seeing what careers children chose for themselves, and how they expressed their interest in these careers through the cards!

We had lots of logos available for kids to color. Here, EDG member Scott Wambach makes an example by coloring a Superman logo.
