Ryan Russell Award for Design Excellence in Graphic Design, Sponsored by Actual Size, Founded by Bob and Mary Kiernan
About

This GivingTuesday, we invite you to honor the legacy of Ryan Russell, a dedicated Penn State graphic design professor who left an indelible mark on students and colleagues alike. Known for his expertise in branding, UX/UI, and motion design, Ryan had a passion for teaching that continues to inspire.

By making a gift today, you can help build upon the generous donation from Actual Size, which was founded by Penn State alums Bob Kiernan ’89 and Mary Kiernan ’89, to elevate the Ryan Russell Award for Design Excellence in Graphic Design into a lasting scholarship, honor Ryan’s legacy, and inspire future designers for generations to come.

Join us in ensuring Ryan’s legacy supports Penn State students who are pursuing their dreams in design.
