Work with Green Door Labs "mastermind", Kellian Adams to go through an interactive, user-centered design process. We will be building techie and non-techie designs alike! You'll leave with a rough project design, design documents to work off and a repeatable process to consider the next time you're thinking of building something fun and interactive. Whether you have an unlimited budget or are bootstrapping with paper and pen, there's always a way to build engaging new media content for your organization! 
10-3 on Saturday January 16th and continue on January 17th from 10-3. Lunch will be included.
