Our Story

In the Summer of 2020, we envisioned an opportunity to bridge the digital arts gap in traditional high school art curricula by bringing design experts and project-based learning to the virtual and physical classroom. Today, Girlz by Design offers students living in the DMV area a safe space to share new ideas, explore cutting-edge design solutions, and engage in a community of creatives.
