AIGA Students Visit Metropolis
Fifteen AIGA students from the small town of Fredonia, New York with a keen interest in design visited Metropolis Creative today to see what Metropolis and design are all about.

SUNY Fredonia has an AIGA club, where the students participate in critical analysis and research in advanced education and ethical practices in design. They came to Boston to check out the Boston AIGA conference.

While enjoying several munchkins and a box o' joe from the vag rounded lovers at Dunkin Donuts, Mike spoke to the students about the proper way to deal with clients, how to run a graphic design studio, job estimating, and contracts.

The group departed for their next Boston adventure and then on to the AIGA show.
