WOMEN’S DESIGN SALON: TRAILBLAZER
THU, SEP 22, 6:30–9:30PM | THE BOXCAR
Trailblazers are inspiring. They face fear head first, take creative risks, and pioneer trends. But at one time, they were in third grade. At one time, they went to prom. What created the drive to take unique risks?
Jihan Zencirli embodies everything about being a trailblazer. Learn about her passion journey from Seattle to LA and her creation of brilliant and internationally recognized balloon sculptures as she shares an evening of conversation and insight with Chelsea Sonksen (Founder, Bossladies Magazine).

AIGA OC
WINE & TYPE PAIRING
THU, SEP 15, 6:30–9:30PM | OPEN HOUSE CREATIVE
1602 BABCOCK STREET, COSTA MESA, CA 92627
Pairing typefaces is a lot like wine tasting: making educated and inspired choices where the history, personality and unique details of each flavor bring out the best of its complement, creating an experience worth savoring.
Join AIGA OC for some type “pairing and pouring” in an evening of type pairing and wine tasting. Learn the tips and tricks for pairing type in a design context—classifications, character, superfamilies and more. This palatable event offers a perfect balance of education and networking for designers of all skill levels and is taught by Michael Stinson of TypeEd.
