Marymount University is asking area residents to attend its Active By Design-athon and help interior design students find practical solutions for creating active environments that improve well-being.\u00a0 The event will be from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on April 1 and 2 at the school\u0092s main campus, 2807 North Glebe Road.<\/p>\n
\u0093It\u0092s an opportunity for students and interior designers to engage the users as experts in their own kind of living instead of having designers serving as experts for them,\u0094 said Moira Gannon Denson, assistant professor of interior design. \u0093Area residents can really help mentor student teams and provide input. We welcome anyone from the community who wants to help out.\u0094<\/p>\n
The two days of workshops will be held in Gerard Dining Hall. A $30 registration fee covers participant entry and breakfast and lunch both days. To register, go to marymount.edu\/designathon<\/a>.<\/p>\n
