Welcome
Listen as our MC welcomes everyone and talks a bit about how the event will work and why its an important part of the creative Chicago community. There will also be a brief video presentation from the Behance founders. Following this will be 1-2 short presentations by a local seasoned creative with the opportunity to ask questions.
Reviews
Attendees will break off into small groups of 5-6 creatives and 1 seasoned creative. Each attendee will have the chance to present their top 3 portfolio pieces to the group for feedback. Constructive feedback will be given in order to better enhance the portfolio items, individually, as well as to elevate the portfolio as a whole.
Networking
After the reviews have completed, there will be the opportunity to mingle and network with fellow artists and designers. This is a great chance to meet the creatives working in Chicago and see what opportunities and collaborations could exist. During this time a raffle will also take place with a number of amazing prizes donated by supporting companies.
