Dear Students,
It’s wonderful to be kicking off a new academic year! I have enjoyed meeting those of you who are new to MCAD, and greeting those who are returning.
One thing I love about MCAD is our remarkable campus community. Sustaining our supportive environment means that, among other things, we deal with challenges, conflicts, and concerns in ways that promote sharing, listening, growth, and respect.
12:10-12:50 p.m. CT
Bizarre Solutions: Building Collective Economic Dignity for Artists, Designers and Everyday Entrepreneurs

This event is an opportunity to connect with industry professionals, get feedback on your portfolio, ask questions, and gain practical advice from potential mentors. You may also be matched with an industry professional for an ongoing mentorship connection.
Mentees should bring a device such as a tablet or laptop, with your best work ready to share. Register on Eventbrite before attending and select the mentee ticket.
Can’t make it this time? Sign up anyway and we’ll invite you to future mixers.
