Sponsor a Member

Support the next generation of diverse artists. Everyone, no matter their color or circumstances, should be able to earn a living wage in the field they’re passionate about. The Graphic Artists Guild wants to make that a reality for people who are passionate about the graphic arts. With your help.

Our Sponsor a Member program is part of our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) and aims to expand opportunities for both professionals and students.

We believe that everyone should have the chance to explore and contribute to the world of visual and graphic arts, regardless of their economic circumstances.

How you can help

Two sponsorship opportunities: Professional Members and Students

Professional Membership Sponsorship

Designed to support five graphic artists who demonstrate talent, commitment, and financial need. Your contribution provides:

Student Membership Sponsorship*

Empower five students who demonstrate potential and passion for graphic arts but lack the financial means to pursue this path. Your contribution provides:

Mentorship Programs

We match students with professional Guild members for mentorship, providing them with a rich source of guidance and inspiration.

Educational Webinars & Workshops

Students receive access to a wide range of educational materials, workshops, and webinars to supplement their academic learning.

Portfolio Reviews
