Week 4: Upcoming events.

So thank you Dave Danioth for doing the screen printing workshop on Wednesday, it was awesome. And thanks for volunteering to do it this week as well. So, if you missed the screen printing demonstration, Dave will be finishing it this week February 3, during club is the screen printing room.

Also, if you would like to take a look at Starbucks headquarters, we will be visiting them February 24th week 7. It would be awesome if you could let the committee know whether you are interested in going. If you don't have a ride, carpooling will be available, or the headquarters are located on 1st Ave. in SODO, you can take a bus along 1st Ave. it's about a 10-15 min. ride. The 15, 18, 22 and 56 go all the way down.

We still need logo ideas for GD Club. If you have anything, even sketches, they would be much appreciated. The logo should represent our school who we are as designers. It would be greatly appreciated if you could come up with some rough ideas to present. Thanks.

Also, Kim still needs at least 5 people to help out with the studio for our gallery coming up. We have 2 volunteers so far, but we also need 3 more. If you could lend an hour or less of your time, we would greatly appreciate it and it would keep things running smoother.

Thanks. See you all on Wednesday.
