Graphic designer Scott McKowen has created award-winning posters and graphics for theater companies across the United States-including on Broadway-and in Canada. He curated a 2002 exhibition of theater posters from around the world which appeared in Stratford, Ontario; Ottawa; and at the Design Exchange in Toronto. McKowen's work has been exhibited in art galleries on both sides of the border, including a show in 1996 at the art gallery of the Canadian embassy in Washington, D. C. He was also commissioned by the Royal Canadian Mint to design Canada's 2001 silver dollar.
