Summertime fun-time rerun-time continues, but before it does, some big news: I'm doing a live Did I Do That? in Seattle for Seattle Design Festival) on Saturday, August 17, 2024 at 4:15pm in Lake Union Park! I'll be joined on stage by the incredible Terry Marks)! Terry Marks is an award-winning designer with laurels from the likes of HOW, Print, Communication Arts, Neenah, Potlatch and more. He had judged a number of national and local design competitions and is a published author, twice for Rockport Publishers and yet his favorite might be Mr. Crumbly Dreams a Tiger for O’Neil Printing + Rule29. Terry is a champion of collaboration, fan of the kind and good, Fellow of AIGA Seattle, and veteran of the Executive Board of the AIGA National Board of Directors.
