Project Prompt
The Gillian Reny Stepping Strong Center for Trauma Innovation at Brigham and Women’s Hospital is collaborating with the Longwood Collective TMA (Transportation Management Association), to raise awareness and promote road safety for all road users.
Pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers are at an increased risk of injury in the month of November due to the end of daylight savings time, which brings longer periods of darkness and reduced visibility on the roads.
We are seeking student artists to create an impactful, thought-provoking poster to support this campaign.
