About the Speaker Series
The AIGA speaker series was crafted with the objective of spotlighting Los Angeles as a crucial city for design. Part of a local AIGA initiative to inform and stimulate the local design community, these events will be focused on a wide range of topics from Los Angeles-based projects, agencies and industry trends.
Maker City LA, a workspace collective for artists, makers, and entrepreneurs, is housed on the 11th floor of The Reef in downtown Los Angeles. We are dedicated to serving the needs of LA’s creative community by providing inspiring workspace, essential tools of the trade, classes, unique events, and a collaborative environment — all in one place.
Free parking may be found in metered spots on the street after 6:00pm or $5 event parking behind the building.
