We already know you have design chops. After all, you’re an AIGA member. But what other skills or hobbies are you hiding? For AIGA Toledo's 2013 annual members meeting, we're inviting members to share unique talents they enjoy on the side. Do you build robots? Collect historic artifacts? Paint pet portraits? Maybe you dabble in street art? Show us what you’re passionate about outside of graphic design! A select few members will take turns briefly exhibiting their talents. So let us know now if you would like to participate before all the spots fill up! We’ll also take some time to discuss the state of the chapter, upcoming events, and respond to your concerns and suggestions. Please RSVP on the event page if you plan on attending and/or would like to be a part of our special “sideshow”. http://tinyurl.com/AIGAslideshow
