Kicking off the new year with exciting design events! ??? Big thanks to Newcity and Vasia Rigou for the mention!

This year, we didn’t just raise our profile — we raised the bar. We brought fresh perspectives into the spotlight, expanded our reach in neighborhoods across Chicago, and invited thousands of young people to discover their own voices through design. By doing so, we’ve begun shaping the kind of museum Chicago deserves: always free, always surprising, and always ready to spark new ideas. Now, as we look ahead to 2025, we want to do even more — and we can’t get there without you. Donate to Ignite 2025: DesignChicago.org/ignite
