What’s so great about InDesign anyway? You be the judge. Come hear designers present 2 projects executed completely with this software and see what you think. We’ll also get some tech-talk from Sandee Cohen, an industry insider (that’s the .5 project.) Plus: A raffle for some fantastic prizes supplied by Adobe, including six copies of InDesign (By the way, the amphitheatre only holds 300, so your odds of winning are pretty good!)
