K-12 Educators, kick off your summer with creativity and connection! Enjoy a free tour of our new exhibition Design Across Time led by curator Emily Orr, then stay for conversation with other educators. You’ll also get introduced to Design Skill Builders, a new collection of fun, ready– to-use activities that bring design thinking skills into any classroom and subject area. Come for inspiration, leave with ideas you’ll actually use.
