About this event

ʕ•́ᴥ•̀ʔっ♡ we’re hosting a worm-like speed design jam @ Figma NYC 

join us for a cozy evening of fast, loose, & no-stakes riffing + pass-the-frame improv. bring your weird & whimsical instincts, plus a need for speed… chaos and mistakes will be embraced >:)

Figma proficiency is highly encouraged but we’ll share a light rundown on a few rare Figma shortcuts and tricks to get you started.

how it works:

1. everyone gets a secret theme prompt… and some time to make an initial design
2. when the time is up, you hop to your teammate’s frame to build on it
3. rinse and repeat for multiple rounds (nobody owns the final piece)
4. group share everyone’s creations at the end :D

what to bring:

  • a fully charged laptop (outlets are limited)

  • a Figma account, logged in and ready to go! free tier is fine

doors open at 6pm (we’ve ordered yummy food). arrive by 6:30: after kickoff we can’t hold for late arrivals! 

this event was inspired by past artworms (digital and physical) and the popular party game gartic phone :)
