We are a student-run organization belonging to the Indianapolis chapter of our national organization, American Institute of Graphic Arts. "The goal of the student group is to get students involved in the local design community, create a community of their own, and help them build leadership skills that will be valuable as they move into the professional world." AIGA members promote design through
conferences, competitions, fundraisers, and events with design professionals. Annual AIGA activities include professional events for members, on-campus lectures by professionals in the design field, and field trips to design studios throughout the Midwest. Nationally, AIGA inspires, educates and informs designers, helping them to realize their talents and to advocate the value of design among the media, the business community, public agencies and the general public. While AIGA was created to advance the design profession, its members now place a higher priority on AIGA’s work in communicating the value of design to audiences outside the profession.
