The Northwest Arkansas chapter of AIGA, the professional association for design.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

After a decade of events, workshops, portfolio reviews, panels, meetups, and community-led initiatives, AIGA Northwest Arkansas chapter will be closing. Our last official day will be July 1.

This decision comes with a lot of care, reflection, and gratitude. Due to not having enough board members and volunteers to sustainably support local programming, we are no longer able to continue chapter initiatives in the way this creative community deserves.

Before we close this chapter, we hope you’ll join us one more time.

Our final event will be tomorrow, June 26, from 6 to 8 PM in Fayetteville. RSVP on Eventbrite. We'll gather and do what we do best, connect about our hobbies and new projects.

Thank you for showing up, volunteering, speaking, attending, sponsoring, mentoring, sharing, building, and supporting this community with us. by @aiganwarkansas

Next time you walk through a pop-up experience or unbox a sample you got in the mail, take note of the details. Every element of a consumer experience is likely the result of multiple creative brainstorms, pitch meetings, design reviews, and final tweaks. 🕵️‍♀️

We design experiences to drive both purchase intent and social sharing, extending the reach with viral social buzz and earned media. The cooler the experience, the more likely shoppers are to remember it and share with others.

Our favorite part of designing for experiential campaigns is that no two activations look the same. We're always keeping our eye open for what's trending as well as what hasn't been done before. Every experience has a different theme, goal, and aesthetic that we get to help bring to life - and that means there is never a dull moment. by @aiganwarkansas

Another spring, another Under Review in the books! 🎉
It’s always a reminder when I see so many of you come together that art and design is still important. That this creative community exists in NWA. It’s hard not to feel creative or inspired when you’re surrounded by a huge room full of them! Thank you for such a wonderful event. 💚

Real kudos to our Portfolio Review Director @taylor_daggett_design for being the mastermind on planning this event. So much hard work and countless hours on nailing all the details and moving parts of Under Review. You’re a real one! 🧡
