CUDO was founded in early 2009 by a group of local designers who were eager to meet others who shared their passion for design. While CUDO started as a professional organization for graphic designers, it has since evolved to be a far more inclusive organization for everyone who loves design, whether you are a professional, student, or avid fan (aka design nerd). CUDO’s mission is to cultivate a vibrant design culture that engages and enriches our local community.
Leadership Details: CUDO Board of Directors
Events: CUDO hosts many events every year, including our monthly Game Night, regular socials, gallery showings and studio tours, lectures from creative professionals, and more. We're probably best know for the ever-popular PechaKucha Night, where an amazing roster of creative people each get 20 slides X 20 seconds per slide to present about their passions.
