PATRONS
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Partners in Design,
The IIDA Georgia Chapter has always been more than an organization, we’re a vibrant community, where design connects people, sparks creativity, and fosters inclusivity. Together, we create experiences that inspire change and shape the future. We create experiences. We evoke emotions. We inspire change.
As I step into my term as President, I am proud to share our 2025–2026 platform: The Creator’s Canvas: Where Creativity Shines and Community Sparkles. Our canvas is bold, collaborative, and intentional and together, we’ll paint a year filled with new opportunities, deeper connections, and greater impact. This platform is guided by three pillars: building bold connections, elevating every voice, and designing with purpose. These principles will drive every initiative as we strengthen our profession, support our members, and grow our community of partners.
Looking ahead to 2026, our Patronship Program will continue to be the heartbeat of our success. Your contributions not only keep our chapter thriving but also provide a measurable return on investment by aligning your brand with the most visible and meaningful design initiatives in Georgia. As a patron, you will be integral to all we do, from signature events like Best of the Best, Leaders Breakfast, Dressed, Georgia Voices of Design, and ZeroLandfill, to new, smaller curated gatherings designed to foster authentic engagement and strengthen relationships across the design community. We are also placing a stronger emphasis on Continuing Education (CEUs), expanding opportunities for you to connect with members in meaningful, knowledge-sharing ways while reinforcing your position as a leader and supporter of the industry.
Beyond visibility and recognition, patronship offers connection, to our members, our community, and the future of design in Georgia. You’ll see your patron dollars at work: elevating student scholarships, supporting mentorship programs, amplifying industry voices, and inspiring the next generation of design innovators. Most importantly, your support adds one of the brightest strokes to The Creator’s Canvas. You are not just a sponsor, you are a collaborator in building bold connections, elevating every voice, and designing with purpose.
Thank you for your belief in us and in the power of design. I cannot wait to see what we’ll create together in 2026.
With Gratitude and excitement,
Courtnei Scott, IIDA
