Long Description: M Gallery at Erie Terminal Place, 112 W. Commerce St., will offer an art exhibition opening for "The City of You | Visual Stories of Youngstown" from 6 to 8 p.m. Aug. 5. The exhibition will be on view through Sept. 23. The event is part of a collaborative rebranding campaign for the City of Youngstown imagined by RJ Thompson, Youngstown State University assistant professor of Graphic and Interactive Design and Youngstown Design Works YSU students. Graphic design and photographic expressions tell positive stories of the changing city. Thompson invites citizens to be photographed and record a personal Youngstown story which will become part of the collection of expressions and audio podcasts shared through the campaign. Schedule a time to record your story and be part of The City of You by contacting Thompson at rjthompson@ysu.edu, or M Gallery director Johanna George at Johanna@nyopg.com or 330-743-5287.
