Just a note about this upcoming event right in our neighboring city of Cleveland. Interactive Designer Jen Myers of Girl Develop It Columbus will be a guest speaker, along with a varied list of industry professionals from around the United States. (we will also see work from Columbus' We Are Things on display in the iLTHY workshop). If you're a soon-to-be graduate of CCAD or are looking to enhance your already established creative career by listening to others' experiences, please check this out! 3 day tickets are $50 through Kickstarter until this Friday. Can't go this year? Local Artist/Blogger, Allison Lehman, will be writing about the event. Check out the WMC blog periodically to read about it.
"The Weapons of Mass Creation Fest is the premier art, design, and music event in the Midwest. Now in its third year, 1,000+ attendees will descend upon Cleveland for three days in June to see 20 speakers, 20 designers, and nearly 30 bands. Creative professionals, entrepreneurs, musicians, artists, students, and fans will gather to learn, get inspired, collaborate, network, and celebrate together."
