Whether you're looking for feedback on your own portfolio or want to give back by helping emerging designers, we'd love to have you at our Portfolio Review this November.
Portfolio reviews offer a supportive environment to learn from industry professionals and walk away with actionable advice.
In addition to portfolio feedback, attendees will have opportunities to strengthen the other elements of job searching (resumes and interviews), and learn more about what employers are looking for in today’s creative job market.
Looking for feedback?
Bring your portfolio and get one-on-one feedback from experienced creative professionals.
Interested in being a reviewer?
Volunteer your time and expertise to support the next generation of designers. Reviewers will meet one-on-one with participants, offer constructive feedback, and help them identify ways to strengthen their portfolios and presentation.
Want to volunteer?
You don’t need to have a portfolio reviewed, or be a reviewer to participate. We’ll also need general volunteers to help with registration, directing attendees, keeping the event running smoothly, and other day-of needs.
