The Black-Jew Dialogues is a provocative two-actor comedy which explores the absurdity of prejudice and racism. This show teaches its audience members how to engage in cross-generational and cross-cultural dialogue by combining fast-paced sketches, improvisations, puppets, a game show, and a post-show discussion.
On January 26, students from Hilbert, St. Bonaventure, and Buffalo State, teamed up and participated in a marketing competition. The goal was to design a logo, icon, and a selling sheet for a local non-for-profit animal rescue. Below are photos from this event.
Hilbert is proud to be the location for Buffalo’s design “Hack-a-thon” on January 26, 2019, where professionals and students from the advertising and design community will work together in teams to help build a branded campaign from scratch in 5 hours for a local non-profit.
This event is a great way for students to gain real world experience in a fun and competitive setting, while networking with peers and professionals from Buffalo’s creative community.
Here’s how it works:
Professional team captains will work with teams of 3-5 students with an even disbursement of talent types (design, copywriting, marketing, etc.). Each team will be presented with a real-life non-profit organization in need of assets for a branded campaign. This will include a logo, tagline, and one marketing piece. Teams will have five hours to put together their branded campaign and will present their finished products to the judges, non-profit representatives, and other BrandHack participants.

While any donation is appreciated, a complete wish list of items can be found on the Compass House Website.

Hilbert’s Peer Leaders led students in preparing gifts to benefit Oshei Children’s Hospital and St. Luke’s Mission of Mercy. They made fleece tie blankets, cards, and activity bags for patients and their families.
