GRIDS: The Grassroots Information Design Studio
GRIDS is both a design agency and teaching studio that was founded by Jessica Bellamy in January 2015 as a social enterprise.
As a teaching studio, we lead workshops and cohorts that challenge creatives to grow their brave aspirations and engage in impact-driven collaborations.
As a design agency, we generate information graphics in all forms in order to better disseminate information to communities around the country. GRIDS, as an agency, works solely with nonprofits and community groups.
Please ask us about our Inclusive Business Model. GRIDS ardently believes that--whenever possible--good work should be supported by good design.
