Application deadline, Friday May 23
Firebelly Design (firebellydesign.com) is looking for standout individuals to participate in their first-ever student design charrette. The sleep away camp runs from June 23 through July 2 and will combine the talents and smarts of 10 design students (or graduates of less than one year) for 10 days of intensive collaboration with an awesome nonprofit client to address a social justice issue, strategize + design the solution and see it all the way through to print.
This is an incredible opportunity to learn firsthand what professional design life is like - Firebelly style. Campers will stay in Firebelly's Chicago loft office, sleep in sleeping bags and eat healthy organic/vegetarian grub. You'll participate in research, brainstorm sessions and client critiques. There'll also be several side missions like field trips and workshops with designers Mike Perry (midwestisbest.com) and Delicious Design League (deliciousdesignleague.com).
College designers interested in working on a world-changing project centered around a social justice issue should visit Camp Firebelly (campfirebelly.com) for more information.
