Retooling the art and design of helmets

In a unique partnership with the Harley-Davidson Museum, the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design (MIAD) - Wisconsin's only college devoted exclusively to the education of professional artists and designers - has kicked off the fall semester with the most ambitious cross-disciplinary project in the college's history. "The Helmet Project" - involving 100 art and design students, 10 faculty members and the Museum's professional staff - will be on view as the first feature exhibition at the Harley-Davidson Museum Garage from Oct. 23 - Nov. 8.
