cause/affect

While we’re on the subject of saving the world (Were we? Do Superheroes ever rest?) perhaps today is the right day to enter cause/affect, AIGA San Francisco’s biennial graphic design competition, which celebrates work that positively impacts society and communities. Work submitted must “do good” in some way, meaning raising awareness, supporting or promoting social niceness, or actively engaging in enriching lives. The competition is open to all, with the only rule being that the work does not contribute directly to the profit of a commercial organization. Deadline for entries is November 11th, so get creating, start wheat-pasting that stuff all over town (even though… does that count as littering?), then bask in the warm-fuzzies of a talent put to proper use.
