This course focuses on Adobe® Illustrator® CC, the component within CC used to create “drawn” graphics, while enabling its users to integrate content from other domains (such as photo-oriented graphics and animation, which belong to Adobe® Photoshop® and Flash®). With Illustrator's many, easily used tools, you will discover that not only can you unlock the same creative impulses you've always had as you've picked up a pencil to sketch out an idea, but also capture those multiple ideas and “what ifs” during the creative process in ways that you never imagined.

These meetings are designed for topical discussions and policy input to the executive board.

Dates and location may change upon discretion of the district chair with proper notice to the members. The annual meeting and annual strategic planning retreat are generally held in lieu of a Management Council meeting. The district convenes advisory and ad hoc committees as needed.

E-bikes, cargo bikes, e-scooters, electric one-wheels and other new forms of micromobility are introducing complexities of speed and size that don't align with traditional pedal bikes nor with motor vehicles. Meanwhile, popularity of these devices is exploding, and city planners and policymakers need to be ready to respond. How do cities accommodate the substantial benefits of these new device types while also maintaining safe and effective operations on streets and trails?
