Good design makes our life easier. That’s why it’s important for the creators to try and imagine themselves in other people’s shoes when sketching things for their use. Whether it’s a playground or an office building, those responsible for the design have to consider the needs of different groups of people, for instance, those with disabilities, seniors, or children, just to name a few; and that might not be easy. However, some people excel at the task and provide exemplary results.

The final concert of the 2024-2025 season for the 51�Թ������ܿƴ� Symphony & 51�Թ������App Academy is happening this weekend.

“We celebrated our 20th anniversary at the Fontainebleau last year, and it seemed like a good year to step back and focus on this new building,” 51�Թ������ܿƴ� College of Fine Arts Dean Nancy Uscher said in a recent chat. “We are looking forward to planning months in advance for 2026.” The event might be staged once more away from the 51�Թ������ܿƴ� campus.
