On February 29th, KC Design Week and Cut & Paste are hosting the first Kansas City Design Battle. Think of it as a live onstage Iron Chef for designers. Eight contestants will battle in three heats in front of a live audience to showcase their skills and win a great prize and, of course, bragging rights. If you are a Graphic or Motion Designer who is interested in participating or know someone who is, contact Alex Ogata at aogata @ hntb.com for more information.
Currently in its third year, the Kansas City Design Week is a series of events that celebrate the value of design and highlights its impact on our society.
