Calling All Creative Directors

It's that time of year again.

Design-A-Thon is upon us and we're in need of Creative Directors to head up the event this year. We would love to invite you or someone you know to participate.

(The general call for volunteers is coming soon!)

Amy Inkster is heading up the event and can answer any and all of the questions (including sponsorship) you may have. We hope you can join us.

About Design-A-Thon

On Saturday, June 12, professionals and students from Calgary’s creative community will participate in the GDC DesignAThon® 2010, a 24-hour creative design marathon. The event links local creative professionals with not-for-profit groups to provide marketing services for projects that support their fundraising initiatives and marketing programs.

The marathon will begin at 9:00am on Saturday at Mount Royal University. Design teams will assemble to develop visual communication solutions throughout the day and night, and will present their finished concepts to the not-for-profit clients at the conclusion of the marathon.

Last year, some of Alberta’s top Creative Directors headed up teams comprised of professional and student creatives. Not including the contribution of volunteers and sponsors, the value of services donated to charities in Calgary exceeded $109,000.
