FW: Materials Workshop in Columbus, Ohio

Hello everyone-

 

While I have not attended any of their workshops, I have read one or two of their MTRL magazines, and they are really cool.  This group seems to really get what designers are looking for in terms of materials and information.  

 

So, just wanted you to know about their upcoming workshop in Columbus. If anyone chooses to attend, let me know- we may have you do some reporting for our blog!

 

Regards,

Tony Shoemaker, IDSA
