"PGDA Writes!" - Project on The Wonderment

PGDA Writes!

Briar Levit

Part of the mission of The People’s Graphic Design Archive is to also facilitate the dissemination of design histories researched and written in part, with the help of our archive. To this end, we aim to focus on developing the writing section of our site. In order to attract the work of writers and offer equitable publishing space, we feel it’s important to pay researchers.

PGDA Writes! is a chance for people who use the archive to disseminate ideas around it. Participants can share research about an item or collection of items. They can investigate a current event that relates to a piece of graphic design history. They can interview a collector, historian, or practitioner. Or they can pitch a unique concept. The ultimate aim is to help the public see how the archive can be helpful, or just simply inspiring in their work.
