June 2009 | Creative Eats

This year has been a great success in the UPSTNY because of these social gatherings. Please take the opportunity to meet your fellow designers in your local community. Not only are you meeting locally with your fellow designers, other designers are meeting in cities throughout the Upstate and in other cities across the country, Detroit. AIGA is 22,000 members strong. You are not alone. You are part of a very large community of passionate designers. We hope to see you soon.

BECAUSE OF AIGA...
Many of you have heard via twitter or your favorite design blogs, this web site is growing quickly and becoming a testament to the success of our organization. Take a moment to read through the honest thoughts of AIGA members from across the country and join in the conversation by submitting your own story. http://becauseofaiga.com

BUILDING COMMITTEES
As we prepare for next year, we are looking to build committees for the following areas: Programming, Communication and Education. If you would like to be part of our growing design movement in the Upstate of New York. Please email me. We want Students and Associate members to participate, big time! http://upstatenewyork.aiga.org/contact/
