For a virtual creative workshop presented by Jill Elliot, founder of The Color Kind – Creative Living Everyday
“A world fueled by creativity is a better place to live. More joy, deeper connection, less stress. All good things, right?
In this workshop, we’ll explore the benefits of consistent creative practice and do some quick beginner-friendly, prompt-lead art to open ourselves up to exploring our flow + creativity.
Please have the below ready to participate in the creative part of this workshop:
A few sheets of any type of blank paper and things for mark making: pencil, crayons, marker, paint + brush, stickers etc.
This is a joint Austin, Dallas, Houston SEGD chapter event.
Register in advance for this meeting by reaching out to your chapter chair for the link.
Save the date! We are still working out the details but we hope to have something fun and interactive to allow us all to get to know each other better.
We will connect this event to a local charity as well to give back to our community.
Casual, Social, and Helpful!

Join us for an inspirational evening with Polish-American designer, SEGD Fellow and author, Jan Lorenc. Jan will take us on a journey from his early life in rural Poland to acclaimed designer, leading a thriving team of architects, graphic designers, sculptors, interior designers, and industrial designers in his Atlanta design firm, Lorenc+Yoo Design. The firm is responsible for award-winning museum spaces, trade show exhibits, sculptures, wayfinding and placemaking for renowned clients including Delta, the Mayo Clinic, Sony, Hyatt, Samsung, UPS, and many others.
Lorenc immigrated with his parents to the United States from rural Poland at age eight. He earned degrees in industrial design and visual design from the Illinois Institute of Technology, and in architecture from the Georgia Institute of Technology. As a professor Jan has taught at the renowned Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) in Atlanta and has been an adviser to the School of Design at Georgia Tech. He is a frequent lecturer in the United States, China and Korea. Jan is also co-author of the definitive museum and exhibit design textbook — “What Is Exhibition Design?” — which has been translated and published in Chinese, Russian, Korean, and his native tongue Polish.
In 2017, Jan was named SEGD Fellow, sharing the organization's highest honor with the likes of Paula Scher, Massimo Vignelli, Lance Wyman, Deborah Sussman, Robert Venturi, Ivan Chermayeff, and David Gibson, among others.
