Guild Advocacy

Created to further your professional and artistic interests, the Guild is your community and your advocate to ensure fair pay, appropriate working conditions and ownership of your work.

For 50 years, the Guild has advocated on behalf of our members: graphic designers, illustrators, animators, cartoonists, comic artists, web designers, and production artists. We educate graphic artists on best practices through webinars, Guild enews, resource articles, and meetups. The Graphic Artists Guild Handbook: Pricing & Ethical Guidelines has raised industry standards, and provides graphic artists and their clients guidance on best practices and pricing standards. We also advocate for graphic artists on Capitol Hill on a wide range of legislative initiatives, as well as internationally through active membership in global umbrella organizations.
