Special SPD-U Mini Pub(lications) Crawl: Friday, Feb. 13
As you may know, we do a big office-tour event every fall called the Pub(lications) Crawl where students get the inside scoop at various magazines here in NYC. While the main event is only held in the fall, this spring we are doing a few smaller mini-tours, and we're excited to announce the first one ...On Friday, February 13, we'll visit the offices of 9Threads Custom Publishing. Award-winning creative directors Nancy Campbell and Trevett McCandliss will give you a special tour and presentation of their offices and work, giving you a sneak peek into how publications get made and how creative photo shoots and designs happen in the real world. Learn more about them here.

SPD-U PUB(LICATIONS) CRAWL MINI-TOUR
9Threads Custom Publishing
WHEN:
Friday, February 13, 2015, 10:30am
The tour will begin promptly at 10:30am. You will need to arrive by 10:15 to check-in. The event will end no later than noon.
WHERE:
NYC, in lower Manhattan. The exact meeting location will be sent to you with your registration confirmation.
HOW MUCH:
• FREE for SPD Student Members! But you must register to reserve your spot.
• $5 for all other students
WANNA COME?
There's only 10 spots open and you must register by the day before the event. SPD Student Members get priority registration through February 6 (meaning they'll get first dibs, but all non-members are able to register now to get their names on the list first for any remaining spots). As of February 7, registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.
REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED. THE TOUR IS FULL.
FOR SECURITY REASONS, NO ONE WILL BE ADMITTED WHO HASN'T SIGNED-UP IN ADVANCE--TICKETS MUST BE RESERVED OR PURCHASED BY MIDNIGHT, THURSDAY, 2/12.
BRING WITH YOU:
• A government-issued photo I.D. for access to the office building
• A notebook for any notes you want to take and a bag since you'll get handouts
• Office-appropriate attire. No need to dress too formally, this isn't an interview ... but keep in mind you'll be in a professional office setting and meeting lots of potential future employers and colleagues.
• Questions for your tour hosts! Don't miss out on this opportunity to really find out what working on magazines is like ... think about all the things you want to know, write 'em down and be ready to ask your hosts about them.
Leave the résumés and portfolios at home ... we'll have a Portfolio Review event later this spring. That said, it's never a bad idea to have business cards handy, in case you want to exchange information with your SPD-U Tour Guides and/or with your fellow tour members.
THE FINE PRINT
Space is limited to ONLY 10 STUDENTS, so RSVP asap!
SPD Student Members get priority registration through midnight Friday, February 6. What that means is anyone can register before then, but SPD Student Members will be assigned to the remaining open spots on the tour before non-members until that date. As of February 7, registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please note that registration closes at midnight EST on Thursday night, February 12.
