ABSOLUT : Justin Broadbent ~ Opportunities PopUp

Absolut : Justin Broadbent ~ Opportunities PopUp

For those in Toronto, this looks pretty cool: ABSOLUT Vodka has partnered with Canadian artist Justin Broadbent to create an experiential, transformative artistic landscape that will challenge people to look, listen, feel and most importantly, explore the meaning of opportunity.

This Thursday from 12-4pm at the unused Bay Street TTC station (see map), artist Justin Broadbent will challenge traditional thinking, and transform imagination into reality through art.

And if a constantly changing art installation in an unused, underground subway station isn’t cool enough … Mr. Steve Aoki will be onsite and dropping a set … Currently the guest list is full, but there is a waiting list, find out more on facebook.

From the site:
“Creative League is a showcase platform for creative professionals and companies, as well as a convenient, all-in-one-place resource for anyone looking to hire them. The service is completely free for all users.”

Basically with so many people fighting for the same jobs, it can be tough to “get in”. Especially for Motion Graphics. Creative League is a place to help you do it.
