Instructor: Mona El Khafif
Research Project*
Year: 2018 Summer- 2020 Spring
Location: Martinsville, VA
* All graphics here are my individual work
Under the project name We Are Martinsville [WAM] the design team, working with the community of Martinsville, VA and the local middle school, developed a game concept that allows kids to learn about their city, encourages them to be outside and exercise while simultaneously helping to build new knowledge and data about Martinsville. The game currently focuses on the historic downtown Martinsville, and future expansions will include the Smith River and the Dick and Willie Line.
