Mission

We unleash the design thinker in everyone to illuminate Seattle's challenges and ignite action.

Description

Seattle Design Festival (SDF) demonstrates the relevance of design thinking, empowers communities to leverage design, and promotes a culture of collaboration. SDF is one of the largest publicly created Festivals in the world.

SDF engages community organizations, neighborhoods, and non-profits not traditionally involved with design thinking. Designers, makers, and activists are the foundation of the Seattle Design Festival and create installations and experiences. The public creates the Festival and anyone can propose a program or installation.

Your gift to SDF keeps the Festival completely free to attend and provides individual stipends for Festival partners who engage students, activists, and marginalized communities in the design process.
