What we’re about
The Lobby is a meet up group for design-minded people in Asheville.
We bring graphic designers, photographers, web and creative technologists, handmade makers, tattoo artists, film, visual artists, motion graphics designers and more to come together for drinks and networking every two months.
Formed by creatives for the benefit of creatives, the Lobby meets as an ever-shifting forum to keep us all inspired as to our calling in the commercial arts field.
The evenings highlight the work and process of five presenters, then people stay as long as they like for discussion and socializing. The event is free, but please RSVP on Meetup so we can gauge numbers and contact you in case of important updates.
Our intentions are to share work, celebrate each other, and support each other's growth.

ADD TO CAL## THE LOBBY MUSIC VIDEO + SHORT FILM
We’re back at it with a ~crossover episode~ about the creatives bringing MUSIC and VISUAL work together through MUSIC VIDEO & SHORT FILM. How does a director find the inspiration for bringing a song to life? How different is a treatment from the final cut? Where the hell do you get a budget for filmmaking?
Uncover what’s happening behind the curtain of the local film scene and get a sneak preview of @musicvideoasheville showcase (submissions close July 31!)
