Morning Brew: The Power of Personal Projects

Join AIGA Colorado for our virtual Morning Brew Series! It is more important than ever to stay connected so join us for a short 30 minute presentation from industry professionals regarding the topics of health, the future of design, or community.

Now the Good Stuff....

How an intentional personal project can fuel your future. Personal projects have been so key to Josh’s success as a designer and illustrator. In this Morning Brew, he’ll walk you through the principles and steps he has taken when creating personal projects. We’ll go over the principles to select, plan, create, and share your project. Josh will share what has worked and what hasn’t worked for him. Attendees will get an activity sheet that helps them develop a personal project.

We are asking for a suggested donation of $5.00 and will be donating 90% of the proceeds to our speakers and partners for Morning Brew. The remaining 10% will go to the AIGA Colorado Chapter to help with our overhead costs, future programming, and scholarships for students during this time.

This presentation will be recorded and sent to everyone who has registered in a recap email.

Videos and mics will be muted for all attendees throughout the call. If you have any questions, please add them in the Q & A in Zoom. We’ll stay on the call for about 10 minutes afterward to answer questions.

A few house rules:

Given the short time of these presentations, please make sure your camera and microphone are turned off. Q & A’s at the end will be taken via Zoom Chat.
