Educational Posters

A primary goal of creating educational posters for the Mill Race is to spread information about the Mill Race restoration project to the public. The posters covered four themes: the history of the Mill Race, water quality issues, upcoming changes, and long-term visions. The history poster provided the timeline of the history of the Mill Race and how people had been interacting with it. The water quality poster had a simple diagram to describe a relationship of the Mill Race and the Springfield public water supply. The upcoming changes poster explained the four big changes of the Mill Race: creating a new inlet, removing the dam from the Mill Pond, restoring native vegetation, and removing non-native vegetation. The long-term vision poster gave some ideas of what people can enjoy at the Mill Race after the project is finished. These posters are meant to be used for school and public presentations to educate people living in Springfield. These fun and easy to read posters played a very important part of advertising the project.
