Be OpenDesign's voice in your city.

Open a local atelier. Convene the meetups, the demos, the late-night critiques. We back you with budget, materials, and a private channel to the core team.

The program

Vocation, patronage, covenant.

Ambassadors turn OpenDesign from a repository into something contributors can meet in a room, with ink on the table and coffee gone cold.

I · Vocation

Painters of the local scene.

Designers, developers, organizers: the kind who already gather others. We give the gathering a flag.

Local Atelier Host: you keep a recurring meetup, study group, or late-night hack alive.
Online community lead: Discord, WeChat, Telegram, X spaces.
Practising contributor or evangelist: already shipping work, posting craft, ushering newcomers.
Comfortable carrying the name: bound to the Code of Conduct, mindful of the brand.

II · Patronage

What the atelier extends.

Not a volunteer badge. A working bond, with budget, standing, and access.

A page on the site: portrait, city, biography, socials, the chronicle of your events.
First sight: beta features, internal roadmap previews, releases ahead of the queue.
The atelier kit: posters, slide decks, demo pieces, swag; a purse for venue, drinks, and photography.
A line to the studio: private channel, monthly sync, a dedicated path for your feedback.
A way forward: honor cards and tiers, with a path into regional lead, speaker, or paid community roles.

III · Covenant

The discipline of the studio.

A modest commitment, but binding. Extended absence folds into alumni status; the circle stays small and serious.

Convene at least one event per month or quarter, local or online.
Welcome the new hand. Usher newcomers through their first contribution.
Listen close. Gather honest feedback from users, designers, developers, teams.
Leave a record. Publish a recap after every gathering: attendance, photographs, links, leads.
Carry the name well. Hold to the Code of Conduct; no misuse of the mark, no deals signed on the studio's behalf.
