Please join AIGA Portland and Adobe for the 2017 installment of the Creative Jam, an inspiring two-part design experience that demonstrates and celebrates creativity.

This year student design teams will be competing in the Creative Jam tournament, a 3-hour design charrette showdown. This event will have two categories: motion design and graphic design. Once the Creative Jam presentations wrap, tournament participants will take the stage to share their creations with you. As part of the audience, you’ll vote on each submission and select the People’s Choice winner. There will also be Grand Prize winners decided by a group of local Judges!

While the Jam is happening the Adobe Creative Cloud team will host the Creative Jam presentations. A one-hour design showcase highlighting the work of Craig Winslow, Aaron Draplin & Lisa Congdon.
