Need to resuscitate your graphic design work?

It’s YellowDog to the rescue!

Whether you are in creative crisis or just looking for a little face-lift, everyone could use a little boost when it comes to designing your own brand collateral. Bring your DIY designs to the experts at YellowDog for a casual workshop to level up your visual impact.

Submit your work in advance to be included in a slideshow that we’ll watch and workshop together (with snacks and drinks in hand). Our creative director and team of in-house designers will lead this peer-to-peer session, offering feedback to take your design from “nice try” to “nailed it.”

This FREE event is perfect for:

Good Business Colorado members
Graphic designers
Marketing professionals who create their own collateral
Entrepreneurs who do occasional DIY graphic design
Canva queens convinced their latest design is either the greatest or worst thing ever created
Anyone who has looked at their own designs a thousand times and needs a fresh eye

How it works:

Step 1: Submit your design art. Attendees are welcome to submit ONE graphic design to us at least two days before the event. We’ll select 10 designs to workshop together.

Step 2: Mix and mingle with other Denver creatives and GBC members over snacks before the workshop. While you’re here at YellowDog HQ, take a tour of our production area and learn how we can help you lower your impact when you print locally.

Step 3: Settle in for the workshop. You’ll have a chance to give friendly feedback on your peers’ designs and receive input on yours. Honesty (with a smile) is the policy - we’ll share constructive critiques to help us all improve.

Kinds of graphics considered:

Logos
Banner ads
Animations
Graphics for social posts
Website headers and icons
Designs for small print: stickers, mailers, brochures, print ads, etc.
Designs for big print: banners, posters, signs, etc.
Anything else you have in the pipeline

To submit your graphic art to the slideshow, please email ONE file as a .png with a brief description of its use and context to jen@yellowdogdenver.com with “DESIGN RESCUE SUBMISSION” in the subject line.
