World Day of Design is an international holiday celebrated on April 27 throughout the world, acknowledging the vital role of design in the public arena. U.S. designers and the public are invited to join in celebrating a day already recognized in Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, China, Cuba, Czech Republic, Italy, Iran, Japan, Mexico, Spain, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan and Turkey.
In support of this initiative, AIGA is issuing a call for entries for a juried exhibition of posters to acknowledge April 27, 2005 as the first World Day of Design celebration in the United States. In keeping with American values, the theme for the exhibition is "Diversity," broadly defined as "a point or respect in which things differ."
Watch www.aiga.org/worlddayofdesign for the call for entries, including a template and instructions for submissions. The deadline for submitting posters will be January 28, 2005.
