This is "Design for Good" in action.
Join us at the Changemakers exhibit and engage in a learning experience that addresses opportunities for equity in our food economy; the socioeconomic effects it has on Seattle families; and the people that are dedicated to tackling these complex issues head on.
The Changemakers exhibit explores:
What is the Changemakers Series about?
This year, AIGA Seattle launched it's Changemakers Series; an annual initiative that pairs local designers with Seattle based social impact organizations. The response from our community has been overwhelming. Over 50 designers have been paired with 8 different non-profits, start-ups and government organizations, that are focusing on solving problems related to our theme for this year; “food”. By teaching and applying Design Thinking, we are creating tools that help these organizations better serve their communities and impact peoples lives here in Seattle. You can learn more about these problems and organizations that are helping by visiting our installation.
