“We’re all good kids,” proclaims one character in Naomi Iizuka’s Good Kids, but what does that really mean? Good grades? A football scholarship? Not getting drunk? Can bad things happen to good kids? Can good kids do bad things?

“I hope that everyone – and students in particular – will find inspiration in the stories of these talented artists,” said DeVos Institute chairman Michael Kaiser.
