The quick ditty on Sync is that it’s a one-day summit of sorts for creative people in and around Syracuse. It’s a chance to make introductions and reintroductions. We find somewhere cool to hang, talk shop, and everyone goes home with a t-shirt and a new lease on camaraderie.
Sync started as a proof-of-concept for me. In 2013, I was heavy into speaking at design conferences and loved the energy and inspiration they generated. Naturally, I wanted to see what it’d be like to have a version of that back home. This year’s event — held at nearby indie vendor marketplace McCarthy Mercantile — did nothing but reinforce that our local creative club should have something to help celebrate the people, projects, and ideas coming out of Central New York.
