Interpretive Graphics with Compelling Writing, Graphic Design, and ADA
Compliance
Wednesday, June 9, 2:00-5:00 PM
San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, Visitor Center
Join us for an afternoon of extreme fun and expert advice about interpretive
graphics and labels. Using select interpretive graphics at the SF Maritime
National Historical Park, small groups will discuss tips for combining
compelling writing, approachable design and ADA guidelines to convey stories
through successful design.
Expert makeover specialists are:
— Frank Binney, Interpretive Writer, Frank Binney and Associates

— Margie Cochran and Armando Garcia, ADA Specialists, Center for
Independent Living
Small groups will visit the Museum Building, but the program will be

newly-design interpretive graphic, a grand finale to the Extreme Label
Makeover program.
