Announcements
How you can help AIBD and impact the industry in 2022.
President Theodore Roosevelt said,

“Every man owes a part of his time and money to the industry in which he is engaged.

No one has a moral right to withhold support from an organization that is striving to improve conditions within their sphere.”

Sometimes it’s challenging to remember associations aren’t just one more entity trying to sell you something.

AIBD began when designers, like you, saw a need to band together to fight for shared values and interests.
