October 2014 Marketing and Design Events

October 2014 Marketing and Design Events

Just last week, we celebrated St. Louis Design Week with seven full days of panel discussions, lectures, workshops and happy hours. You’d think we would have had enough, but actually, it’s the opposite. We’re more energized than ever to get out of the office to collaborate and learn from our fellow St. Louis marketers and designers.

Below, we’ve complied a list of marketing, design and social media events in St. Louis in October. We hope to see you at a few, and remember to check back periodically for additions to this list here, on Facebook and on Twitter.
