ABOUT THE MCAD+MIMA SPEAKER SERIES

Tim Brunelle (principal, Hello Viking) is teaching "The Future of Advertising" at MCAD this semester. He wanted to invite a bunch of cool people to speak at his classes. MIMA wanted to join in the conversation. And MCAD + MIMA = a lot of people. So we're all taking over the Fine Line Music Cafe (on five Monday evenings) to kick back, have a few and listen to smart people talk about - right - The Future of Advertising.

How will the conversation go? Think "Inside the Actors' Studio": Tim will play James Lipton. (We're hoping he grows the beard, and fast.) In the hot seat are some of our industry's brightest stars. Get ready for the goodness.
