What are you doing to change the world?

Substance and Pinch are presenting the third Show & Tell PDX event as part of the larger New Communicators series of events. And in the spirit of the New Communicators, this go-round gives the floor over to the people and companies who are changing the world, not simply through their words, but through their actions. Communication through deeds.

Doors will open at 6:30pm with drinks and music, then begin the program at 7pm. Note that there are a very limited number of chairs, so if you like sitting down you might want to either show up on the earlier side.

Presenters for this Show & Tell include:

Otis Rubottom, Columbia Sportswear: Columbia Sportswear Reused Box Program

Kristin Dahl, Board President of We Love Clean Rivers, Inc. with Jenn Reilly from the RIPPLE Effect: Turning restoration into recreation on rivers in the Pacific Northwest, then turning the trash into art

Chad Rea, ecopop: Bringing conscious consumerism out of the exclusive fringe and into the accessible mainstream

Eva Lake: Changing the world through art and artists

Tyesha Snow: Redefining what Strategy means in the context of creative work

Scott McDonald, Not For Sale Campaign: A recent trip to Ghana, West Africa to rescue eight children off Lake Volta

Michael Etter, re:Active magazine: introducing students to design thinking and the creative process in general, helping youth to see a path that makes sense for them by introducing them to jobs in the fields of design, writing, illustration and photography
