Deadline is June 1st, so if you've got some composition chops (maybe even tucked away behind your mad design skillz?), get in the game!
The AIGA Winterhouse Awards for Design Writing & Criticism seek to increase the understanding and appreciation of design, both within the profession and throughout American life. A program of AIGA, these annual awards have been founded by Jessica Helfand and William Drenttel of the Winterhouse Institute to recognize excellence in writing about design and encourage the development of young voices in design writing, commentary and criticism.
$10,000 for the top prize, plus a $1000 student prize. Last year's winners are here.
