DesignCampWaterloo

From the DesignCampWaterloo website:

  • DesignCampWaterloo is an informal, open-forum opportunity for digital designers to gather, talk, and show off their work to like-minded folks.
  • DesignCampWaterloo was born from the idea that creativity thrives when people get together and talk, no matter what the subject. Borrowing from BarCamp’s open-forum style, DesignCamp provides digital designers (student, professional, and those somewhere in between) with a place to gather and share their work, experience, and passion.
  • DesignCampWaterloo also gives employers a window into the design community, and an opportunity to connect with the talent they need.
  • DesignCampWaterloo is a student-founded, student-run group based out of the University of Waterloo. We love design, just like you.
  • ===============================
    WEBSITE: http://www.designcampwaterloo.com/
    LOCATION: University of Waterloo, Student Life Center
    FOR: All. According to the website, employers and professionals will be at the forum as well.
    TIME: Thursday November 8th, 2007 @ 2PM to 7PM
