The main goal of the Association of Polish Graphic Designers (Stowarzyszenie Twórców Grafiki Użytkowej; STGU) is to defend the creative independence of designers together with the rules and regulations of reliable, professional design and the prestige of the graphic designer profession. The Association was founded in 2004 and since this time we are promoting the idea of 'good design' and the need to invest in professional design as a practical tool to manage branding, corporate strategy and public space. We organise workshops, exhibitions (e.g. The history of Polish Graphic Design, Yearly STGU Exhibition), national and international graphic competitions. We bring together graphic designers and other visual authors in Poland and raise the level of visual culture in the society. We attempt to explain that high quality graphic design translates to success in commercial activities. We cooperate with public and private sector-commercial companies, government institutions, non-governmental sector, culture sector and education sector. We are the largest organisation of this type in Poland - we connect graphic designers and authorities.
