Founded in 2007, the AIGA DC Design Continuum Fund is an annual merit-based scholarship program that supports local design-minded students by offering them financial assistance to pursue their design education. Through the sustained support of Continuum Circle members and friends, AIGA DC seeks to build an endowment for the Design Continuum Fund, the future investments of which will provide ongoing support to the program.
Emerging designers across DC, Maryland, and Virginia are invited to apply and join a community dedicated to advancing equity through design.
Over $100,000 has been awarded to recipients to date. The new deadline is May 6, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. ET.
