Don’t let the cold air freeze your creativity! Plan to join AIGA Nashville as we host our 7th annual DISH Student Conference, February 25-26, 2011! This 2-day intensive conference will ignite your passion for design and give you “real world” knowledge from industry professionals, all at a great price!
For 2011, we’re thrilled to welcome Keynote speaker Frank Chimero to kick-off the event Friday night at Watkins College of Art. On Saturday, look forward to exciting break-out sessions featuring the web stylings of JD Graffam, the product and package designs of Griffin Technology’s Mark McGlon and the illustrative silk-screen posters of Ryan Nole from Kangaroo Press! And of course, we’ll be hosting student portfolio reviews with local professionals, have some sweet product give-aways and more!
So mark your calendars for February 25 & 26 and get those portfolios updated for the big review! Online registration will open this week, so stay tuned!
Early-bird registration for DISH 2011 is now open (and extended)!
REGISTER NOW for the 2011 DISH student design conference featuring Keynote speaker Frank Chimero before midnight on February 20th and save $20! Online registration at the door price will continue from 2/21 -2/24 and then we will be accepting in-person registrations (all credit cards, check and cash accepted) during DISH (2/25-26).
Junior and senior-level attendees also have the opportunity to participate in our student portfolio review. This is a great chance to have seasoned professionals (and our speakers) look at your portfolio in a no-risk, non-competitive environment. You can practice your interview skills and get honest feedback about your portfolio and resume. And it’s only $5 for members and $15 for non-members!
