RISD Alumni Event Takes Over Sandbox.
Sandbox has a long track record of supporting their alma maters and last week was time to get festive with Chicago RISD folks. Roughly thirty alums found their way to Sandbox for a night of craft brew and lying about who they once slept with back in art school. The field of art professionals encompassed glassmakers, architects (there were a lot of architects), photographers, illustrators, painters, and industrial designers. Stories of the quirky town of Providence, Rhode Island, were rehashed, hands were shook, and all the beer was drank. We think it’s safe to stay that the event was a hit.
Sandbox co-founder and self-proclaimed “el presidente” Matt Stone graduated from the world renowned Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) over seventeen years ago. That’s a long time. Especially for someone who still has a picture of Darth Vader hanging over his desk…
If you’re an alum of RISD and missed out, drop us a line and we’ll be sure to add you to our list of invitees for the next RISD alumni round-up.
