Wordless in DC


 

For some reason the internet wasn't cooperating yesterday, many apologies if the Wordless News email didn't hit your inbox. Everything should be fixed shortly! 

I'm traveling to DC this morning to speak at CIS and do a Wordless News workshop with some fantastic high school students! There wont' be any Wordless News today since I'll be in flying, but the news will be back tomorrow morning. Happy Thursday!

CreateAthon 2014

Friends! 

It's the happiest creative day of the year. I'll be taking a break from Wordless News today and tomorrow to participate in a 24 hour work day. If you aren't familiar with CreateAthon you can read all about it here. Essentially, it's a 24 hour creative blitz for nonprofits. 

This morning at 8:00am I'll find out which team I'm on, who the client will be and we'll get started. Tomorrow morning the client will come in and we'll present all the things we worked on for them. And they can take everything home for free. 

I'm really excited and already tired, but I'm sure there will be plenty of coffee to keep the creativity going. 

If you have time and are interested you can follow along with our progress throughout the night here and here. 

Wordless News will be back on Monday. 

Cheers, 

Maria
