A New Chapter
From day one, desigNYC has been a connector—between design disciplines, communities, individuals, and organizations. We believe a connected world is a better world, one in which we all feel a shared responsibility to the people and communities around us and actively engage with our environment.
It is in the spirit of our founding that we announce that desigNYC is coming to a close, five years after a group of enthusiastic volunteers, nonprofits, and pro bono champions launched our first pilot projects. We are incredibly humbled by the enthusiasm every member of our community has shown since that day, and are still amazed at the caliber and breadth of the projects completed.
It may be the end of desigNYC, but it is the beginning of a new chapter in the evolving story of social impact design. We invite you to join us in celebrating the great work completed over the past five years, and to make brand new connections and birth new ideas about how to use design for good.
Please stay tuned for additional information about our fall exhibition on November 6th.
