Behind the scenes of Breanna Carzoo’s process for creating this year’s Austin Museum Day poster! Carzoo is an Austin-based author-illustrator who crafts with painted cut-paper collage and mixed media. This design was inspired by the variety of things you can see and experience by visiting the museums participating in Austin Museum Day. Can you guess which museums are reflected in the glasses?
