The purpose of Design Expo Raleigh ’07 is to present great design to the public and to give designers, both professionals and students, a forum to display and discuss their work. A unique showcase of applied arts coming together as a whole, Design Expo Raleigh promotes broader awareness of many different design disciplines and creates an opportunity for local designers to network with each other, students, and the public.
This two-week event combined fund raising, project management, event coordination, marketing/promotion and website integration. Design Expo is the brain-child of Donald Corey (Other Edge) and was developed in conjunction with Michael Bustin (MeldUSA), Erick Mehlman (Cline Design), Amanda Robertson (iMediaGraphics), Jessie Schaefer (Signal Design) and a host of volunteers.

The most important international event for children, their teachers and parents in the world, the World Children’s Festival is hosted by the ICAF every four years, traditionally on the National Mall in Washington, DC. The World Festival integrates the arts, science, sport and technology to create a complete synesthetic experience — a total work of art that transforms the National Mall. Leading educators and experts come together to heal, inspire and unify children and peoples across the globe.
The Festival becomes a turning point in the participants’ lives, a touchstone to guide them in the future. The 2007 World Children’s Festival took place in Washington, DC on June 22-26. From June 23 to 25, the World Festival occupied from the 4th to the 7th Streets of the National Mall.
