Friends of our Vision: the Vignelli Center for Design Studies at RIT
Friends of the Vignelli Center
As part of our tenth anniversary and in honor of R. Roger Remington, the Massimo and Lella Vignelli Distinguished Professor of Design Emeritus and the founding Director of the Vignelli Center for Design Studies, a generous donor has established the R. Roger Remington Fund for the Vignelli Center for Design Studies. Gifts will be matched up to $100,000.
