The Santa Monica College Dream Program

When SMC filled their need for regular assistance to help undocumented students stay in school with a new program, the necessity for a logo was apparent. Paige, who had been involved with the efforts of the program before it was formally structured, and having created logos and graphics for several other areas of the college, was a natural choice to bring a recognizable and friendly image to the new office.

Using the symbol of the monarch butterfly for it’s association with the “Dreamers” - undocumented children of immigrants to the United States - and keeping the colors bright and modern, Paige created a clean, simple logo for the program’s website, signage, promotional materials, and more. The logo is still used in the offices of the SMC Dream Program today.
