Designing in resilience together

The DC, Maryland, and Virginia area has a proud design community, and this year we’ll be emphasizing the word “community” more than ever. You’ll see events rooted in connection, recovery, and curiosity—with an eye toward what’s worked in the past and how we might support our larger ecosystem as we move forward.

Events

This year, we’re highlighting the connections that strengthen our community, and the ways that people are coming together to help one another, fueling the kind of curiosity that leads to discovery.
