Designing Change

Share Post

Keep your eyes on this space, as profiles will take any number of forms, including written articles, collaborative content, educational resources, and interviews conducted by MCD staff and Design Council members.

MCD’s Designing Change series focuses on the ability of creative individuals to inspire meaningful change for themselves and their communities. With all of the paradigm shifts and status quo disruptions of 2020, this year’s Designing Change moves away from a single-focus event and instead becomes an ongoing framework for designer, artist and changemaker profiles–allowing MCD to continue to tell the stories of people making a difference, as difference is made.
