My work involved on-site management of Outreach efforts, which include the scheduling of over 60 docents and volunteers across the 12-day event.

Digital Activity Guide (Solo Project)

Digital Activity Guides (DAG), released monthly, provide our subscribers with family-friendly printmaking activities. The guide drew praises from many of our patrons both local and overseas. Preparation for the project included making a mood-board and prototypes, arranging a photoshoot for the product shots and creating gifs to visualise the steps. I applied the print and paper making techniques that I learned during the 5-month internship.
Other DAGs
