Giving Tuesday is Coming!
Support SDF emerging designers like Pari on this National Day of Giving.
Receiving funding gave me the freedom to focus fully on creating and sharing my project. This support meant so much to me both personally and professionally. As someone early in my design journey, it affirmed that my ideas are valued and encouraged me to continue pursuing design as a career path. – Pari Goyal, 2025 SDF Funding Recipient
As our region faces big challenges, design helps us imagine new possibilities. Seattle Design Festival (SDF) brings people together across neighborhoods, disciplines, and experiences, to envision solutions for a stronger, more equitable Seattle.
On Tuesday, December 2, we’ll join organizations around the world to celebrate Giving Tuesday, a global movement built on shared humanity and generosity. Our Board of Directors is matching your gift dollar per dollar up to our humble goal of $5,000 now through Giving Tuesday.
Please give a gift today to support student designers like Pari, and a free and accessible Festival that keeps design at the heart of our community.
