Mix Mentor & TypeFace!!! January 20th
Mix Mentor is back! All design students should REALLY take advantage of this opportunity. We will be viewing a great new documentary called Typeface first in the SPEC at 6:30. You do not have to be a member to come to the screening, but Mix Mentor is for members only.
Immediately after the film, we will be moving to the Jordan Ballroom to enjoy light refreshments and mixing/ mentoring! We will pair students and professionals for 1 semester. Your professional member will meet with you several times over the semester to talk about the design industry, what they do, portfolio reviews, and to discuss any questions that you might have as a student.
This can be an incredibly valuable experience and a chance to meet professionals in the Boise design community.
