AIGA San Francisco, the professional association for design, is an organization with cross-disciplinary interests that deals with social, ethical and professional challenges. It is the largest professional association for the design community representing San Francisco, Silicon Valley, North and East Bay and the greater Bay Area. Our community hails from all disciplines, backgrounds, colors and cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds and levels of experience and we advocate for gender parity. Whether you’re interested in attending, contributing or volunteering, take a moment to browse some of our projects below and see why we’re your resource for all things design. Led by an Executive Director/CEO along with a volunteer board of directors and various committees, the organization celebrates design and provides unparalleled opportunities for networking within the local design community and offers a variety of resources to advance professionalism and broaden knowledge. AIGA SF’s events stimulate discourse and enrich the collective experience of design. Our events include: Designing Products, Mentorship Programs, Networking Events and Women in Leadership. One of our initiatives is Women in Leadership & Design (WILD). WILDs mission is to amplify women and non-binary designers’ collective power and visibility. We mobilize and energize impact in design leadership by focusing our work on connecting, elevating, sharing, and educating designers in our community. Often, we do this through events like group meals, speaker series, workshops, meetups, and more. We exist to redesign leadership, together. Visit our group page at Photo credit: Andre Pennycooke
