RegisterCreating Exhibitions Using Design Thinking
Presenters: Atlanta Botanical Garden, Atlanta History Center, and High Museum of Art
When: Saturday, January 27, 2024, 9:30 a.m.–2:30 p.m.
Location: Atlanta History Center
Discover how the Atlanta Botanical Garden, Atlanta History Center, and High Museum of Art use the five phases of the design thinking process—empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test—in creating their exhibitions. We’ll discuss ways cultural institutions engage audiences, encourage thoughtful discussion, and convey information through hands-on experiences. We’ll also explore how your students can do the same by creating their own exhibition. What topics could your students explore when designing an interactive exhibition experience?
Parking at the Atlanta History Center is free. Directions are available here.
