TEN SHOW Opening Event

Over 700 of Chattanooga's business, design + arts community converged on THE CHURCH to experience the best design in Tennessee at the opening of The TEN SHOW. Also in attendance were designers from all the Tennessee AIGA chapters as well as from AIGA Atlanta + AIGA Birmingham. So many people were onsite that not everyone could be accommodated + several were unfortunately turned away. [see photos]

In short, the TEN SHOW opening was an incredible energy-filled design event that is still generating buzz in Chattanooga. Thank you to everyone across the state who entered—this was your show. Thank you to my chapter who designed collateral, enabled digital media, met with city leaders, raised money, worked the phone, worked the broom [uh, where is my green push broom!], organized entries for the judges, installed the exhibition, re-installed the exhibition, staffed the show, loaned equipment, showed up early + stayed late. Great job.

And, thank you to our terrific sponsors who support + continue to invest in creativity. The AIGA values your partnership. You make Chattanooga a wonderful place to live + design.
