In its third year, Sahre, Victore, Wilker brings together designers from around the world for 6 intensive days to collaborate and push their ideas.
This summer, two weeklong Sahre, Victore, Wilker workshops will be held at the Art Directors Club headquarters in New York City. Each workshop is unique and self-contained - join us for one or both.
"Jan, Paul and James each have their own distinct creative approach which i feel lucky to have learned from. I went back to work feeling creatively refreshed and inspired by my profession and the people that are a part of it."
Marie Coons, SVW '09
"(Sahre, Victore, Wilker) reminded me that design isn't about moving shapes and type around on a page—it's about creatively thinking differently. It was nice to design with my hands and brain together again... they've missed each other."
