RED Academy has put together a series of free (and fun) workshops as part of Vancouver Design Week. No experience necessary!
This year, Vancouver Design Week is focusing on the impact that design has on our lives and how it can be a powerful tool to make the world a better place. See where you fit into that equation by joining RED Academy for free workshops and open houses on May 11th and 13th.
Beer and cheer at RED Academy’s logo design challenge (May 11)
Come along to watch or participate along with RED Academy students and staff for a real-deal design battle. Armed with markers and whiteboards, teams will have one hour to conceptualize and execute a logo for one of RED’s Community Partners. Join for a beer and cheer them on, or get in on the action! Remember to RSVP!
Speaking of Community Partners, At RED Academy, students work with Community Partners as their actual clients. These partners are either non profits or impact start-ups. It’s the basis of their curriculum and the foundation of their education model, providing students with actual work experience while they’re still in school. You can learn more about becoming a community partner HERE.
That’s not the only design-y event happening next week…
Vancouver Design Week Open Studio (May 13)
Looking for a career that challenges your creativity? Love UX/UI? Have no idea what that means? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may want to swing by RED Academy’s open studio workshop day on Sunday, May 13th!
Throughout the day, RED Academy will open their campus to tech-hopefuls looking for a behind-the-scenes look at User Experience (UX) and User Interface (UI) design. The day will cover everything from mood boards and colour theory, design challenges and inspiration, user interface questionnaires and even provide time for attendees to network and build community.
Once the day is wrapped up, be sure to stick around for a coffee and a chance to win a free Essentials Design course. You can RSVP here.
