Designers are eager to infuse their work with green design thinking. And we’re here to help. As part of AIGA Portland’s sustainability initiative, this year’s vendor expo will focus on green design.

This event offers designers a unique opportunity to learn more about sustainable design strategies and how to make them real. A combination of speakers, breakouts and a local product and service expo provide an interesting mix of insights and inspiration.

Designers can create measurable change by rethinking how they do their work. We hope you’ll choose to be part of what we know will be an exciting ongoing exchange.
