Hi Irregulars,

With the UXPA 2017 conference in town, we have great designers from all over the world in Toronto and we're lucky enough to have some of the visiting speakers joining us for an evening of socializing.

Closing keynote speaker Meena Kothmadarian from twig+fish, and MIT's Chris LaRoche, who focuses on accessibility and UX, will be with us.

Please join us to welcome our special guests, and meet your peers in the Toronto and international design communities!

Sorry for the short notice, but this came together very quickly.

Please RSVP and see you tomorrow!
