This 130+ page, 4-color, high quality stock showcase book will again feature work that passed the scrutiny of some of the most highly respected judges in the country.

Trivia Night! April 28th @ Club Garibaldi

Nick Pipitone — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 04:05:03 +0000

Many Adworkers members are asked questions all the time. Like “Why are you so brilliant?” Or, “where did you get those shoes?” There is also the age old favorite “Where is the rest room?”

But on April 28th , my Adworkers friends, the questions are going to get a lot tougher. It’s Adworkers Trivia night on April 28th at Club Garibaldi. Put a team of the greatest minds you know (can include professors, sportscasters, dog trainers) and sign up. We’d love to have you, and your brain.
