Stay tuned for more!

We're wrapping up some @connectionkits for this client's upcoming workshop. Although we launched Connection Kits as a service for virtual events earlier on in the pandemic, we're excited to be designing and producing these kits for an in person workshop happening soon.

No spoilers yet. We'll share more after the event. For now, here's a sticker.
