At Design Interface Inc., our connection to the Cleveland Institute of Art runs deep—especially through its Industrial Design program. Our principals, Carla Blackman and Adrian Slattery, both teach at CIA, creating a strong bridge between professional practice and design education.

That connection comes to life at CIA’s annual Spring Show, taking place this week.

The 2026 Spring Show highlights student work across a wide range of disciplines—from product and transportation design to graphics, interactive media, and sustainability. Visitors can meet students and experience the ideas shaping the future of design.

Opening Reception: Tuesday, April 21, 6–8pm

Highlights include:

• Runway Show (7pm)

• Animation screenings (7:30pm)

• One-night-only exhibitions and student sales

The Spring Design Show in Reinberger Gallery featuring Industrial Design, Graphic Design, and Life Sciences Illustration.

The exhibition continues through the week:

Wed–Fri: 10am–5pm

Sat–Sun: 12–5pm

Location: Reinberger Gallery, 11610 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland

We’re proud of our ongoing partnership with CIA and excited to support the next generation of designers. If you’re in the Cleveland area, we encourage you to stop by, explore the work, and be inspired.
