Carnegie Mellon School of Art

"Animation is a small industry and having younger and more diverse voices is super important because they bring so much of their personal experience to their projects."

We caught up with six 2020 graduates to learn about what they’re doing now, how their education prepared them for their jobs, and what advice they may have for students graduating this spring.

The School of Art encourages all eligible members of our community to vote today, if you have not done so already!

Leading up to the 2020 election, Legan is focused on helping to drive youth turnout to the polls, both in her work for political action committees and in her artwork that engages with contentious political issues.

5pm today is the LAST CHANCE to request a mail-in ballot or vote over-the-counter (early vote) in Pennsylvania! The post office also recommends all ballots be mailed today in order to be received by Election Day. In Pennsylvania, you can also return mail-in ballots in person to your county’s elections office (for Allegheny county, the office is downtown at 542 Forbes Avenue).

See the work tonight, Wednesday, and Thursday from 6-8pm.
