JOIN US IN FIGHTING FOR PHILLY CLIMATE JUSTICE! WORKERS’ RIGHTS! HARM REDUCTION!

DESIGN ACTIVIST INSTITUTE

Studio



Series

REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE! PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION! PUBLIC HEALTH! LGBTQIA+ RIGHTS! 

Are you creative, interested in design, a designer activist, or looking to collaboratively develop new skills while building a better world? 

Join us for the Design Activist Institute Studio Series info sessions or workshops.

The Studio Series is a free, interdisciplinary, co-creative, and autonomous laboratory. The community nominates local issues, and participants — those without formal experience in design as well as professional designers — vote to drive group-determination.

The Studio Series has been postponed until further notice. We will update this space with more information once we have rescheduled.
