About this FieldTrip
As the saying goes, play the cards you are dealt. Jess Moss with projekt202 will lead us through how to find solutions to UX problems, even without traditional user research.
On the bright side, we often have more than we think - we just need to organize our resources in a way that makes sense (and not just the Marie Kondo way)!
This FieldTrip is a special co-production between CreativeMornings/ATX and AIGA Austin, the second of four weâll be hosting with AIGA in 2019. Learn something new and meet and mingle with your fellow creatives from both communities.
Join us Friday at Lazarus Brewing Co., where our hosts have generously offered to feed and caffeinate us!
Please note that this will be a super-sized FieldTrip running from 8 until 10 am.

How to make the most of FieldTrips
The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Show up fully
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Stay curious
Wear your beginnerâs hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!Â
Celebrate your host
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings communityâjust like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgroundsâa lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
Support each other
Weâre all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try âYes! AndâŚâ in conversation.
Not vibing?
Itâs 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
