    About this event

    We are pleased to be presenting one of the biggest names in the graphic design world, and one of the most popular presenters ever at the Adobe MAX conference, Aaron Draplin of Draplin Design Co. of Portland, Oregon and Austin, TX.

    We got a book deal! That mythical call up to the big leagues. Hear the harrowing account of making our first book. From the contracts to the scheming, from the pagination to the design, from the tears to the nightmares…we'll share what it’s like to cram your whole half-wit career into 256 pages. And yes, the book has typos, and so does life. We’ll show examples of both from the making of Pretty Much Everything. Print’s not dead! Let this talk be proof. The entire presentation is dipped in Pantone Orange 021.

    There will be merch, books, and book signing before and after the lecture. Bring your sharpies.
