Tyler students win
Blackstone LaunchPad Global Competition

Tyler School of Art sophomores Tianhao Guo, Micaela Klick, Hannah Strayline and Julia Swieson have been awarded the first place prize for Blackstone LaunchPad’s Solve a Campus Challenge. This competition challenged students to create a one minute pitch video that presents a solution to a problem found on campus. The competition received 144 entries from 17 institutions in the U.S. and Ireland. Their winning entry was Laundromate, an on-demand laundry service that hires people on and around campus to do laundry for other students. Check out the award-winning video.

Professor Pepón Osorio featured in video by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage

On view for the full academic year at Tyler, Professor Pepón Osorio’s “reForm” installation has been the site for a number of interesting programs and conversations focusing on the impact of school closures across Philadelphia. In the video, Osorio discusses how he sees his practice as a means of “expanding the conversation” about critical social issues into a broader context beyond a project’s immediate environment. Check out the video.
