Aaron Draplin is a bit of a rockstar in the ad world – iconic graphic designer, speaker, author, and creator of Field Notes brand books. He recently swung by St. John’s to unleash his boundless knowledge and wisdom upon an eager audience. Ray’s Terri Roberts joined Draplin along with Jud Haynes of thedesigners for an industry panel discussion following the main event.

Ray was a proud sponsor of the evening, which also included the 2017 CNA Graduates’ Show. More than 40 local design students exhibited their work to industry movers and shakers. Congrats to thedesigners on such a great night of collaboration and community.
