Figma for Edu Presents: Treasure Island Creative Mixer
Welcome to Maker Island AKA Treasure Island!
Get ready for a night of connection, conversation, and creativity—with one of the best views of San Francisco! Co-hosted by Figma for Education and Intern Ship, this mixer brings together top student designers and creatives from the SF design & tech world—all set against the stunning skyline of SF.
This isn’t your typical networking event—it’s a space where career creatives and students will come together to celebrate the community-happening on an island. That’s right, Treasure Island, with panoramic sunset views of the San Francisco skyline as your backdrop. It’s part social hour, part design-fueled inspiration session, and part golden-hour hang with the brightest young minds in the Bay Area. Whether you’re new to the design field, a current student looking to break into a career in tech, or an industry creative using Figma’s tools to create—you’ll feel right at home.
What’s in store:
🍴 Complimentary dinner and curated mocktails to spark conversation and keep things flowing.
🧑🎨 Real talk with local design pros who’ve been in your shoes—and have stories to share.
🌇 Epic views of the city as your backdrop for meeting fellow creatives and potential mentors.
🛳️ A quick escape from the usual—this island night out is designed to feel special, memorable, and a little magical.
Dress code: Think “dressy casual”—authentic, professional, and totally you. Smart but comfortable.
This night is for those who care about community, craft, and career—but want to enjoy the ride while they’re at it. Come ready to meet your people, soak in the skyline, and celebrate where you are (and where you're going).
