Talk About with Patrick Coyne of Communication Arts

Do you know where your latest issue of CA is? If you are like most designers, photographers, developers, and illustrators, it sits close at hand, dog-eared, already marked with favorites -- designs that have inspired as you have scrambled to stay in touch with the absolute latest.

AIGA Charlotte proudly presents Patrick Coyne, editor and designer of Communication Arts on Thursday evening, May 14th. Patrick will share stories about the history and philosophy of the magazine as well as present a selection of award-winning projects produced on limited budgets with unlimited imagination. He will talk about the future of creativity in the post-information age. And he will be on hand to answer your thoughtful questions about the industry at large.

So, here's a strongly hinted-at suggestion: Before marking up your latest edition of CA, dog-ear May 14th to come hear Patrick Coyne speak. This is a unique opportunity to gather under one roof -- as a creative community -- and listen to an individual who has witnessed, first-hand the design industry evolve and succeed through decades of change.

AIGA proudly presents Patrick Coyne on Thursday, May 14th in Charlotte, NC. Won't you join us?
