About the speaker
Our next speaker could be someone YOU know! 🎉
For our event on May 29th, we’re hosting a unique Release Day event with Sam Furness from Creative Quests.
Ten members of our NYC community will be invited on stage to share the creative project that they’re releasing.
Each presenter will have 2 minutes and up to 3 slides to share their process.
What is Release Day?
Release Day on May 29th is a collective deadline. People all over the world will be launching a passion project on the same day!
So, even if you're watching online, you can release a project too! It can be big, small, polished or imperfect. Release Day is a motivating moment to say, “Here it is.”
