Event Recap: Yeah, We Said It: “Say It N’awlins” Dribbble meetup

Early AIGA Design Conference attendees joined AIGA New Orleans and the NOLA Dribbble Group for a mixer & lecture presented by Dribbble and Mac Papers at the Little Gem Saloon. Around 200 guests took part in a typography activity, savored a specialty bourbon cocktail called “The Page-Maker’s Brambbble” and the down-home cuisine of Food4daSoul, perused mindblowing paper samples and extras from the likes of Neenah, and enjoyed Nikki Villagomez’s popular talk, “How Culture Affects Typography,” tailored to New Orleans. Guests also learned exactly what kind of a nerd names her dog after a designer and her kid after a font.
