Novice and expert designers are invited to participate in this not-so-ordinary human-centered design workshop with a focus on designing inclusive experiences. Workshop participants will be encouraged to bring their personal perspectives to embrace a growth mindset when applying design thinking to their daily lives and work.

During this hands-on event, you’ll get to work with small-group activities, ethnographic observation, synthesis and insights generation, and principles of inclusion to solve unique design challenges. Once you’re finished, you can expect to leave this workshop having designed experiences that matter for people living in and around the DC area.

This workshop is co-presented by designers from Capital One’s One Design organization and blackcomputeHER.org. Drinks and light refreshments during the workshop.

About DC Design Week

Built by 100% volunteer power, DC Design Week is an annual celebration of this community, hosted by AIGA DC. AIGA Member On-Sale begins 9/5 at 10:00am and the General Public On-Sale begins 9/10 at 10:00am.

100% of the proceeds from DCDW events go toward future AIGA DC programming and the Design Continuum Fund (DCF) scholarship fund. We believe in fostering the next generation of designers through helping local design-minded and underrepresented students as they pursue their education.
