2023 DIVERSITY CALENDAR
Celebrate the joy of diversity with Brevity & Wit’s 2023 Diversity Calendar!
In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it can be difficult to pause, connect, and remember days of celebration and observance. And yet, we human beings are wired for connection.
It is in that spirit that our design team has produced our 2023 print calendar, filled with inspiring, joyful representations of humanity’s diversity. Our hope is that our Diversity Calendar will serve as a beautiful reminder to stop and connect with friends and colleagues across cultures, faiths, and identities.
We have chosen to highlight holidays and observances most relevant to US audiences, given the physical limitations of a printed calendar. But there’s room to write-in your own, and you can email us at info@brevityandwit.com to let us know what holidays you’d like to see in next year’s calendar.
From all of us at Brevity & Wit, we wish you a year filled with meaningful and joyful connection!

About the Design
The 2023 Diversity Calendar was designed by Brevity & Wit’s Creative Director, Acacia Betancourt, and Senior Visual Designer, Sophie Greenbaum. Using a photo collage technique, the unique aesthetic seen in this calendar is rarely seen in other print materials spotlighting diversity and is a true statement piece. Spiral-bound on acid-free paper, the 4-color calendar highlights major holidays for various cultural groups, and is accessible for people with low vision.
