Poster Exhibit – Drawn to Diversity: Exploring Advertising
Categories: Events
September 10 – 14, 2009 Memorial Library 2nd floor leisure reading area
Alfred University students produced this exhibit when they observed that a local supermarket’s Black History display merely featured boxes of Aunt Jemima Pancake Mix and Uncle Ben’s Rice. This exhibit was a response to the need for education in our supermarkets and the public at large. Putting a new spin on diversity education, this program uncovers the truth behind many common food products and advertising campaigns. This exhibit brings new meaning to food for thought.
