Last week we posed the question:
What design events would you like AIGA Arizona to host?
We were excited to receive over 400 responses, which will be a great help in guiding AIGA Arizona events and programs...
To address a few topics, you can get your social fix each month at Creative Connect; check out some training resources supplied by trainer Paul Trani at our recent Adobe CS4 event; web design workshops are in the works; and stay up to date on Phoenix Design Week.
