WOW. Hard to believe we just wrapped up HOW Design Live 2020!
Yes – it’s been different – but once again, the magic of HOW was SO evident. Your feedback has been incredible! At a time when we’re all missing the magic of in-person connection, I hope you still felt the creative energy of HOW – and I hope you feel empowered by some of the messages we heard last week:
- You are not alone
- Be authentic. Being yourself is one of the most courageous and rebellious acts there is
- Design can (and should!) solve problems
- Creativity is in our DNA. We all have it – but we need to nurture it
- Rest, recovery, and reflection are essential
- Believe in yourself and your work and be persistent
I hope you’ll continue to engage with us through our Virtual platform through February 28 – I encourage you to stream the sessions you missed on demand to keep the inspiration flowing. Please continue to engage with our sponsors as well: Workfront, Lucidpress, Wrike. Mailchimp, International Paper, The Creative Group, SCAD, Red Paper Plane, ZMags, and Dell Technologies.
Thank you for believing in our community, thank you for showing up, and thank you for being part of our HOW DESIGN LIVE family.
I will see you next year in Chicago! Until then take care and be safe.
– Amy Conover
Some Conversations from the Event
I am rarely speechless but @HOWEvents is giving free admission in honor of my father for all veterans who want to learn design with the code ‘VETERANCOMP’. RT and shares appreciate to help as many people as possible. @SHGTUS @USArmy @USMC #VeteransDay pic.twitter.com/h8yEUtVhaO

#howdesignlive I'm kinda loving the one on one virtual presentations… At least that's how it feels :-)… @emilyoberman from @pentagram is telling me about the history of her work with @nbcsnl – so cool! @HOWEvents pic.twitter.com/hcyRFhCepQ

Signed onto @HOWEvents for Day 3 expecting some highbrow design lessons, but instead I got the most wholesome advice from @beardedcbass and his self-discovery journey. He’s saying SO MANY things I needed to hear. I’m not alone. Thank you. #HOWDesignLive pic.twitter.com/aVD7Jvhzfr
