Following a short Keynote presentation about branding museums and cultural institutions, participants will be broken up into teams and given them a brief for a branding/identity assignment.

Teams then will work together brainstorming ideas, with DJ Stout offering individual Art Direction. At the end of the exercise, a representative from each team gets up in front of the whole group and presents their branding solution.
