Upcoming Workshop!

Join Kay Frank for a 3-hour workshop on the Basics of Graphic Design using Canva. This hands-on session goes beyond templates to help you understand the core principles behind clean, consistent, professional design. Whether you’re creating social media content, marketing materials, or branded collateral, you’ll learn how to design with clarity and consistency to build a visual system that supports your business long-term.

What You Can Expect to Learn:

  • Navigating the Canva interface
  • Understanding basic design principles (alignment, hierarchy, spacing, and typography)
  • Utilizing Canva’s library of templates, images, and graphics strategically
  • Setting up and using Brand Kits for visual consistency
  • Organizing files and folders for an efficient workflow
  • Designing reusable social media and marketing templates
  • Exporting designs for digital and print use

By the end of the workshop, you’ll feel confident not just using Canva, but creating strong, on-brand designs that elevate your visual footprint. You’ll leave with practical tools, reusable assets, and a clearer visual direction for your business.
