Andrew Hunter and Tarin Hughes will be coming to this week’s meeting to talk about the Artery and possible collaborations between Artery and Render. It’s an awesome opportunity to continue on the quest of improving the Artery - anyone and everyone interested in discussing these things are more than welcome to come. Hope to see you all there!

Can anyone sit at the gallery this month?
We need sitters for the Artery.
Please check the schedule in the SoFA lounge to see if you can volunteer!

There’s talk of a Christmas party in the first weekend of December at the Artery.

If you’re upset you missed the deadline, don’t fret, you can still submit before Friday November 23rd to Lesley Hartley or to any SoFA member, or to anyone in the 4th year studio. However, the sooner you submit the more buyers can view your work, hence increasing the chance of purchase.
So, submit at least one work! It will be great to put onto your resume and having your work in a public gallery space!
IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE: The artists are now receiving 75% of the sale price of the artwork. In other words, SOFA only receives 25% commission. Sound better?
PLEASE SUBMIT MINIS!!

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
