ADAC Event: What's Next?

ADAC (the Art Directors and Artists Club) presents What's Next?, a panel featuring four Sac State graduates speaking about the different paths they've taken in the design world since graduating five years ago.

Hans Bennewitz, Christopher Lee, Rob Martin and Jeffrey Tanhueco will spend the evening recounting very different paths taken post graduation. Design degree in hand they have found homes for their particular design talents in Sacramento, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Come hear their stories of trial and tribulation and ask questions as this panel of young award winning and published designers share their relatively new found wisdom.
