Give the Gift of Creative Freedom
When you give an annual membership to The Philadelphia Design Center (PDC), you are gifting the tools and space that designers need to succeed! Too often, creatives struggle with gaining access to expensive equipment and software that are an essential part of the creative process — that’s why we are committed to providing a wide range of sustainable design resources to everyone in our region’s diverse design community.
At PDC, members of our growing community gain 24/7 access to some of the latest digital design technology, a professional grade textile studio, flexible workshop/meeting space and more!
