:to set off in a burst of activity

The Interior Designers of Alberta Communications Committee is excited to launch SPARK! A means to further connect design professionals with one another while cultivating a stronger sense of community, advocacy, and shared leadership within the Alberta interior design industry.

Image

Q: What can I expect from a SPARK event?


A: Meaningful connections. Are you new to the industry? Have you recently moved from another city or province? Or, are you looking to test out another sector within the design community?

Whatever your path might be, SPARK events are geared toward starting the dialogue amongst our members and bridging the gaps to make lasting connections.

Image

Q: What makes a SPARK event different from the typical IDA event?


A: SPARK is an initiative provided by the Interior Designers of Alberta, intended to build upon the current list of events. As a valued member, we want SPARK to be your local platform. Whether you’re an emerging designer; working professional; or soon-to-be retiree; more frequently held events will help strengthen local engagement and provide the opportunity for more proactive participation.

Image

Q: Why attend a SPARK event?


A: SPARK events are geared toward the sole purpose of strengthening our community through interaction.

 

Have you ever spoken to another designer and be absolutely inspired by what they’re saying? We can learn a lot from our peers, no matter what their educational background is, or what stage of their career they are in. Great conversations often spark inspiration.

SPARK Ambassadors are local representatives with a passion for strengthening the design community within their provincial borders. These individuals are advocates for the Interior Designers of Alberta and are champions for connecting, engaging, and inspiring their peers.

 

Stay tuned, Alberta! With the launching of SPARK, we are currently looking for SPARK Ambassadors to help lead this initiative in Calgary. If you are interested in being a champion in your community, please reach out to Darren Gee ( dgee@dialogdesign.ca).

Been thinking about joining the IDA but are still on the fence? Already a member but still don’t know many design-y folks? Not sure if you’re even eligible to be a member? We got you. Join us for an evening of mingling with other members of the Interior Designers of Alberta who are happy to answer all of the above. In between answering questions, we’ll be learning how to mix cocktails like a pro so you never have to SETTLE for gin and tonic again.


Come out and get to know your local design community! This is an awesome opportunity to reconnect with familiar faces, grow your design tribe, and feed your inner mixologist!
