R.T. Ryback Speaks with MCAD Class about Community and Advertising

R.T. Rybak, former Minneapolis Mayor and President of the Minneapolis Foundation, paid a visit to Nancy Rice’s Integrated Advertising class to speak with students about their current and future creative practices. The conversation surrounded the role of creatives within advertising, and how the ways businesses brand themselves reflect a moment within a collective culture.

The students are currently working with the MN Tool Library, who lend their catalog of over 8,000 tools to members, as well as offering free workshops and personalized classes. His advice was to approach the promotional material they were making as a way of offering community and what the organization provides to the twin cities collective culture.
