When we started our Patreon campaign we had a simple vision: to use the financial resources of our supporters to provide better design to free open source and open web initiatives that we think are important to communicate better with the outside world through better design. In the first days we thought that this was enough to change the quality of visual communication. This perception changed gradually after discussions with graphic designers that are doing their first step in this field. We quickly understood that they have many questions about the usage of free open source tools in the process of designing for their needs.
With this in mind it was clear that that we definitely need to educate the new generation of designers through workshops and talks about our philosophy. Without further delay we started organizing the first Open Source Design workshop at Open Labs hackerspace in Tirana, home of the open source community in Albania.
In conclusion: it was a great first step in educating the next generation of visual designers about the values designing in the open. We definitely need more of your support though Patreon to host even more workshops not only in Albania, but also other countries.
