WHO WE ARE > OUR HISTORY

Design Action Collective is an independent design and communications spin-off of Inkworks Press Collective. After more than a decade of offering graphic design services to non-profit, grassroots, and activist organizations under the same roof as its print shop, Inkworks decided that both its print and design services would benefit from the creation of a new collective. This has allowed us to expand our design capabilities, to provide web and other interactive and "new media" services, and expand to include strategic communications and messaging. Design Action is a union shop, affiliated with Communication Workers of America, AFL-CIO. We are also active members of Graphic Alliance, the Network of Bay Area Worker Cooperatives, and the U.S. Federation of Worker Cooperatives. Design Action is a certified Green Business with the County of Alameda.
