We kick off Monday, September 21 with Call To Action, featuring two marvelous speakers from different sides of the design world. Dan Klyn, renown information architect and co-founder of The Understanding Group, will share with us “What Good Means” in the context of digital design drawing upon lessons from the design of physical spaces. And Kate Hunt, experience designer and former director of Design for Good – AIGA West Michigan, will share insights about her experience helping the design community thrive in Grand Rapids.

Held at the beautiful Owens Community College’s Center for Fine and Performing Arts, these dynamic speakers will leave you feeling inspired and better connected to your purpose in the industry. With the generous support of the Toledo Web Professionals, we invite people of all backgrounds and skill levels to join us for an evening of networking, refreshments and thought-provoking presentations.
