dMob December (Bad Holiday Sweater)

Tis the season of mistletoe kisses, mall Santas, spiced eggnog and of course bad holiday sweaters. We encourage you to celebrate this season of tacky, brightly-embellished woolen duds with us and wear your “holiday best*” at this December dMob at Life of Riley (downstairs). Bring a canned food item to get into the spirit of giving, and network with fellow creatives. Give cheers to patchwork plaid Christmas trees, puffy snowflakes, and light-up holiday attire. On this festive night, we will also be acknowledging all AIGA volunteers with a “special treat.” And never forget the dMob mantra… “Can I buy you a drink?”

*Reindeer antler headbands, foam Rudolph noses, Santa beards, dradel earrings, and other accessories are also encouraged.

The dMob Concept

This is our monthly gathering for the entire Portland design community. Social interaction and networking is the core of this monthly event. AIGA Portland wants to encourage discussion, business development, and help foster a more dynamic design community here in Portland. Plus, with such a plethora of independent breweries, our choice of venues and beverages is expansive.

Fees

Free and open to the public. That’s right, no charge! For one, you’ll have a great time. And even better, it’s an amazing opportunity to network and meet fellow designers.

How It Works

It’s simple. When you arrive, you’ll get a sticker to wear. Venture forth, find another sticker-wearer and offer them a drink. That’s the trick: you can’t just drink your own, that just wouldn’t be social. It’s a great way to break the ice.
