After the success of our Shopify workshop this past June, we've teamed up again with the Shopify crew to host a follow-up event later this month titled "Shopify Theme Development for Web Designers and Front-end Developers". This session expands on our last workshop and explores some of the more technical aspects of creating and manipulating Shopify themes.

We've re-worked the curriculim and are excited to add additional interactive elements. We've also added General Assembly to the partnership mix who will be providing the venue and general support for the event.

• Date: August 20, 2014


• Time: 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm


• Venue: General Assembly Boston
