AIGA Mentorship Program

Post on Nov 29th, 2020 by Kate Bingaman-Burt

AIGA Portland’s Mentorship Program is designed to connect student designers with professional mentors from our own creative community. During the eight-week program mentees & mentors meet weekly for digital one-on-one sessions. The program is lightly structured to maximize flexibility with the individuals’ pre-established goals and expectations. The initial 2021 Mentorship Program will take place during the winter term, running from January 16, 2021 – March 13, 2021. The deadline to apply is December 4, 2020 for both mentors and mentees. Must be an AIGA member to participate. Student Membership is $50 a year.

Collage Club: Potluck!

Post on Nov 23rd, 2020 by Kate Bingaman-Burt

The holidays are right around the corner, and you know what that means! — holiday parties, quality time with friends and family, and some questionable potluck side dishes…if only! Since we are unable to host an in-person potluck, we have created a virtual collage event where everyone can bring in and share digital collage assets – potluck style! Our plan is to create a holiday-inspired collage story for the next collage club zine, and we need your help!
Everyone who signs up will be given a theme to base their asset collection around. We will then convene over zoom to hang out, enjoy our own food and drink, and build collages.

Register now at tiny.cc/collagepotluck! More details will be sent to registered participants.
