Seeing Red at The Orange Studio

June 23, 2008

The Orange Studio is so hip it oozes its orange design/creative honey goodness out by the ton, attracting creative flies many times over. Exhibits and performances [past ones include: Eleethax, Love Not Hate] have started to blossom since Julio bought up the box building and splashed it with apparently everyone’s favorite bit from the Crayola box. Some events had a social tinge to the night. Now they just get up front with their designs to fix at least a piece of the world.

This new one is an Orlando.AIGA joint [the super secretive society of design professionals from the Orlando area bent on taking over the world]. Orlando.AIGA actually it is the local chapter of the largest and oldest professional organization for design professionals. Its purpose is to share in the broad discussion of design issues such as ethics, analysis and sharing ideas about how to make it better profession.

This event is a forum to see how better design professionals can wield their talents in ways to better move the world to action in some of the most troubling issues. Graphic design, which was born to convince us to buy what we may not need, is the perfect vehicle to reverse that action and convince us on what we need to act.

It is a fundraiser as well as forum, posters [silk screened limited prints] will be sold to support the charity of the designers choice. $5/10 at the door.
