Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum Virtual Red Bench Speaker Series:
Ski & Snowboard Creatives Discuss 'The Art of The Graphic'
March 25th at 7:00 pm via Zoom
Join ski and snowboard industry creatives Thursday, March 25th at 7:00 pm for Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum's free Virtual Red Bench discussion, "The Art of The Graphic".
The Museum has invited some of the top designers and creative directors in the ski and snowboard industry for a Zoom virtual panel discussion to get a behind-the-scenes look at how board graphics are developed, who calls the shots, and just how much they can influence sales.
We’ve assembled a panel that has hundreds of graphics to their names on some of the best-selling skis and boards of all time. If you've ever wondered what goes into designing ski or snowboard graphics and how designers come up with their ideas, you'll want to sit in on this Red Bench discussion.
Meet the graphic artists behind the topsheets, hear their stories, and ask them any question you’d like during this 90-minute Zoom discussion.
