Hear from members why AIGA is the place to go for connections, resources, savings, education, recognition and—of course—inspiration.

Through member surveys, conversations with stakeholders and conference sessions, AIGA has been examining the role of annual design competitions. AIGA Executive Director Ric Grefé explains the thinking behind new programs and competition structures. 

George Tscherny, recipient of a 1988 AIGA Medal, devoted his professional life to educating the people who manage business that design should not be a cosmetic service but an integral part of their corporate culture. After establishing a reputation for designing striking trade ads and promotions for the home furnishings industry, Tscherny went on to work for the highest echelons in American industry, including Johnson & Johnson and SEI Corporation.
