Las Vegas Design Center to host 2 events this March

Las Vegas Design Center (LVDC) will two sessions in March: a social media photography First Friday session and a student career day.

“We are excited to resume LVDC programming in March, engaging both current and future design industry professionals in an intimate, educational setting,” says Cain Brodie, general manager of LVDC. “LVDC is proud to continue offering a full range of trend and trade education, networking and design resources in 2023.”

The March “First Friday” session, “Composition Like the Pros: Leverage the Psychological Benefits of Photography to Elevate Your Social Media,” explores basic compositional techniques to instantly elevate images, videos and content on social media. Interiors and architectural photographer Devin Robinson will address why some images just feel good and others don’t, raising the question: “Is there something psychological going on?”

Robinson has more than 15 years of professional photography experience. Robinson began his career as an Interiors photographer in 2017 while earning a master’s degree in clinical social work. Combining his experience in human behavior and electronic media, he launched Devin D. Real Estate Media, which provides a wide range of marketing media for real estate professionals.

The March “First Friday” session will be held March 3 at 10 a.m. PT in the LVDC Seminar Room, A140. Registration is required no later than March 2 at 9 p.m.

Additionally, LVDC is set to host a student career day in partnership with the California Central/Nevada Chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers on Thursday, March 30, for students at interior design schools from the western U.S. to learn from and mingle with industry professionals in an all-day event. The day will consist of a presentation by Nevada State Board of Architecture, Interior Design and Residential Design, panel discussions, pop up workshops, networking opportunities and a luncheon.

The event will run from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at LVDC. Students interested can RSVP at no later than Monday, March 27.
