Holiday Social
Holidays are busy, so let's relax and have some fun! The CWSA will be taking a break from presentation-style events until the new year. This will be a purely social geek get together over dinner and drinks. Attendees are welcome to bring a date/spouse/friend along. Holiday cheer is provided, but food and drinks are not.

Hooked on Aesthetics
Visual design – it's more than just making things look pretty. Learn how emotions and feelings through visuals can enhance or hinder the experience.
