EXPERIENCE SOMETHING NEW AT THIS YEAR'S SUMMIT
COLOR BEYOND will encourage you to think about more than color, trends, and forecasts. We've replaced our legacy workshops with new and collaborative events designed to heighten your connections and broaden your perspective. In our hands-on workshops you'll explore materials and how they relate to CMG's directional color stories and their impact in the circular economy. You'll dive into color in the field of animation and games, exploring the impact on emotion and perspective. Our mentoring event will broaden your thinking of color in new industries as you connect and establish relationships with a global community of color design experts. And to enhance your experience our PreSummit events will challenge your assumptions and thinking on color!
