This is finally a chance to invite colleagues (past, present and future) and friends to join us for a drink, and to learn more about us (as well as inevitably meeting some exciting and like-minded people from the region.)

Design Event 09 Update
With Design Event 09 festival just weeks away, we're leaping ahead with progress. The beautifully designed invitation packs went out last week to Design Event networks, telling all about what has been planned around the festival theme of Politics and Play. I've also hosted briefing sessions for our team of over 50 volunteers – always encouraging to see some committed and interested people joining the team to deliver the festival.
It's Design Event's 5th birthday, and working here for the third year myself, I'm pleased to be managing some great projects and events. One of my personal favourites has to be Simon Heijdens' TREE installation, which I've been managing, along with some great technical support from Nick Joyce and his team at ArtAV.
