Recently, the ArtCenter College of Design presented the “Kwame Brathwaite: Things Well Worth Waiting For” exhibition. The event celebrated the prolific photography of Kwame Brathwaite.
On April 27, D’Wayne Edwards, who has designed shoes for some of America’s top companies like Nike and Adidas, received an honorary degree from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Unremarkable as it seems (Edwards has been a professional designer for about 30 years now), it’s not something Edwards imagined would happen for him. But he’s honored nonetheless, to have received the degree; it’s something that has sparked a look back at his life in somewhat of amazement.
