How can we design a more just & equitable future?

From February 20–23, MODA and M21D are co-hosting a series of visionary events exploring how museums can be catalysts for change, shaping a more just and equitable future through design. These interactive experiences invite participants to rethink the role of objects, storytelling, and cultural institutions in a rapidly evolving world—because the museums of the future won’t just preserve history, they’ll help design what comes next.

Presented with the generous support of the Consulate-General of the Netherlands in Atlanta.
