Thu, May 1st, 12:00pm - 1:00pm
Location TBD

By attending an AIGA event, you agree to abide by the Code of Conduct.

The theme for May is “Out & About: Side Quests!”

One thing that stood out in our January Meetup about Goals was that most attendees mentioned that they wanted to do more networking & socializing. Now that it’s Spring and things are warming up and allergies are kicking in, this month’s meeting is replaced with a task to do just that!

To reiterate, we will not have our monthly meeting in May. Instead, we encourage you to go into the community and attend an event, workshop, lecture, talk, exhibition, class, etc.! Go solo or gather some friends/bring along a partner and make it a social event.

In June we’ll meet back up to share what side quests we went on & what things we learned & experienced!

Chair of Solopreneurs
I am Freelance Visual Designer, Illustrator, and Lettering Artist based in Bloomington, MN. I have over a decade of experience with brand identities, designing for print & digital, website design and event design.

Through my art & design studio, That's Goodness Design, I offer design services and sell my original artwork. A lot of my custom hand-drawn work appears in my client projects.

When I’m not designing or drawing, I enjoy climbing/bouldering, lifting, going to movies, and hanging out with family & friends.
