These custom tote bags were created in the Center for the Art’s Print Shop by current students at Wesleyan University in collaboration with the design firm Waterhouse Cifuentes. Each bag features two colors: a foundational red symbolizing the CFA, and another color indicating one of the many disciplines taught, practice, and presented in our spaces. Created in celebration of the CFA’s 50^th Anniversary, they hint at a new design system Waterhouse and Cifuentes have created that will be unveiled in the fall of 2024. Note that because of their hand-made quality, each bag features a different orientation of rectangles with some minor imperfections.

All proceeds go directly to supporting the CFA’s programming, which includes weekly presentations by guest, faculty, and student artists, much of which is free and open to the public.
