AIGA Maine’s Lightning Talks are a recurring series in which creatives of all kinds present brief, informal talks to their peers. Each event is centered around a single broad topic. Several experts from within Maine’s creative community are invited to speak for about 10-15 minutes about one aspect of that subject. Speakers share stories or case studies, talk about process, and provide helpful tips and ideas. Lightning Talks are a forum for learning from one another’s expertise and experiences, and a chance to meet and build connections with creative professionals outside of your own discipline.
