Adobe Firefly Workshop | Philadelphia

Picture October 6, 2026 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM EDT

A live design decision workshop with Firefly Boards. *Laptop required*

In this hands-on workshop, we'll spend our lunch hour building a brand from scratch together using a shared Adobe Firefly Board. You'll see how Firefly Boards help teams move from brief to exploration, collaboration, and creative direction faster, all in real time. AI isn't making the design. It's helping surface ideas, accelerate exploration, and remove friction so you can spend more time making creative decisions.

Working through a shared exercise, you'll experience firsthand how Firefly Boards can transform the creative process while keeping the designer firmly in the driver's seat.

*PLEASE BRING A LAPTOP IN ORDER TO FULLY PARTICIPATE.*
