Luncheons Lecture Series

TIED TOGETHER

Welcome to the 2017 AIGA Minnesota Luncheons series! We have three fantastic speaking events lined up and we can’t wait to kick off a brand-new season. Last year’s new format was universally well-received, so we’re continuing to keep the fresh vibes alive with a new venue, new food and new discussion each week.

This season, the discussion theme is family ties. Ties can be good and bad—obstacles or opportunities. Whether they grew up with design or married into it, our speakers have strong family ties that blur the lines between their professional and personal lives. Join us for the inside scoop on working, living and breathing together—how ideas spread, how secrets are kept and how family bonds make design better.

So get out and get inspired! You never know where a lunch may lead!
