This year's exhibitions included the second-highest attendance in recent records, by actual count. It also included two traveling exhibitions, a doubling of previous years.
Activities related to securing existing audiences included expanding coverage in the print magazine of activities related to participation, providing visual verification of personal engagement. Exhibition audiences are reflective of the diversity of topics and each exhibition drew a unique and focused audience, providing the most effective means of attracting new viewers, participants, and members. 2: Both Redefining Redesigning Fashion and Rural Design: A New Design Discipline broke new ground in exhibition topics and design. Redefining Redesigning Fashion was an international juried/invitational exhibition that explored sustainability in apparel. Rural Design explored a new design area, parallel to urban design, and was printed on fabric banners. These banners were then secured to light-weight frames to form a low-security pop-up exhibition, designed to travel to rural locations as a community conversation-starter on issues related to rural development and culture.
