TUESDAY LEARNING LAB: Canva: Graphics Made Quick, Easy & Free. No, Really!

The human brain interprets images much quicker than text which is why images can communicate a product, service or brand instantly. Additionally, images give depth and context to a description or story and provide a much more immersive experience than writing alone. That’s why being able to quickly and easily create a visual graphic is so important. Join us for an introduction to Canva - a graphic design platform that allows users to create social media graphics, presentations, posters and other visual content. 

Learning Lab attendees will learn:

• The different types of visual content users can easily create in Canva from 1000’s of templates

• How to navigate the basic platform and where to find more in-depth tutorials

• How designs in Canva can be shared in multiple platforms

• Why using visual images are so much more effective than text when communicating with an audience
