Round up your finest design—AIGA’s annual competitions close March 3.
For nearly a century, AIGA’s competitions have been among the most prestigious in the design world. This year, we've added two new features to make it even more compelling to enter your work. First, entry forms and payment can now be submitted online, streamlining the process and saving you a lot of time and paperwork. More importantly, all selected entries will be placed in the AIGA Design Archives, a growing collection of exemplary design work, and archived at the Denver Art Museum.
Why enter the AIGA design competitions? They are tough, they are authoritative and if your work is selected, it becomes history. By means of the competitions, AIGA creates a chronicle of outstanding design solutions, each demonstrating the process of designing, the role of the designer and the value of design.
