04.01.2022 RSVP for the AGDA Awards online ceremony 3 Dec 2020 Whoa. We’ve got there! Excited to announce that thanks to our good friends at Damn Good Productions you can now officially RSVP for our online awards event. RSVP for the AGDA Awards online ceremony 3 Dec 2020 5pm (AEST) start Approx 6.45pm finish... Free to attend Open to everyone Not unlike our call for entries, and our judging, planning an awards ceremony has been very different to those of the past. As y’all know the strength of AGDA is when we hang out and come together. With the good old C’word, some regions can already. Awesome!!! For us however, It did not feel fair or right to run an event that excluded so many of our members who are still bound by distance. If you’re in a state with low restrictions get a group together! Watch the awards and celebrate the incredible work produced this year. If you’re a studio with a large space. Consider inviting some neighbouring studios. Grab a slab of beer, chops, and soda and celebrate together. And if you are at home watching solo we promise still an enjoyable show! As always, any questions please let us know and we’ll do all we can to help. In the meantime.. RSVP!!! https://agda.com.au//agda-design-awards-2020-online-awards
