Day 1 - Studio Tours
Explore the possibilities after you finish your studies with tours of a local print shop and design studios (digital, creative, inhouse) followed by an evening networking social.
Day 2 - Portfolio Reviews
Open to students and recent graduates aspiring to enter into a career in communication design and students currently enrolled in a design program. Share your portfolios or work in progress to several industry professionals to obtain insightful and constructive advice about your current portfolio.

This is also a great opportunity to network with the who's who in the Vancouver design community.
