Thursday, October 27 • 6:30 p.m. / The Department / 1 N 1st St #600 / $60
Be one of the lucky few who will get the inside scoop with Aaron Draplin of Draplin Design Co. This wickedly successful Pacific Northwest print, identity and illustration firm, makes stuff for: Coal Headwear, Esquire, Nike, Wired, Timberline, Sasquatch! Music Festival, Nixon Watches, Patagonia, Target, Ford Motor Company and even the Obama Administration! DDC's first book Pretty Much Everything came out in May, 2016 and is already in its third printing! Aaron has traveled the world telling his story, with 240 speaking fiascos under his belt and counting and now he's making a stop here during Phoenix Design Week!
What can you expect? Aaron tells us, "We’ll give an in-depth walk-through of some of our projects and answer questions in an intimate setting. We open our laptop, and dip you inside it! There'll be tips, tricks, tales and threats from our questionable existence! Questions answered. Riddles solved. Enigmas discussed. Refreshments! Even free door prizes! Don’t miss out!"
