Reconnect | Rediscover | Reignite: Industry Night for Manitoba Communicators

March 17, 2023

Save the date! RRC Polytech’s Creative Communications class is hosting the official launch of WORKING_DRAFT Magazine at Manitou a bi Bii daziigae on April 4, 2023.

Over the past year, Creative Communications students have been hard at work planning, writing, and editing longform pieces for Working Draft, a student-produced web magazine. Each edition features fresh, thought-provoking ideas and perspectives to help readers reach new insights and think critically.

Working Draft launched at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which prevented the magazine from having an official launch. This year, second-year Public Relations and Communication Management students have planned an event to honour all four editions of the magazine and provide an opportunity for students and alumni to connect and mingle.

The event is an opportunity to explore the state of the communications industry in Manitoba and see what future communicators have been working on.

On April 4, 2023, please join us in celebrating the launch of Working Draft magazine at Manitou a bi Bii daziigae, the beautiful new expansion of RRC Polytech’s Exchange District Campus (319 Elgin Avenue). The event will run from 5:30 p.m. until 8 p.m. and feature live entertainment, mocktails, appetizers by King Cole Catering, and a showcase of creative work from the past four years.

All Creative Communications alumni, past instructors, and industry supporters are warmly invited to attend. We hope to see you there!
