Design Thinking, Frye Art Museum
When: Saturday, December 7, 2013, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Where: Frye Art Studio,
What: How can the design process be used to make great experiences that promote learning and cultivate lasting, positive change? Inspired by Franz von Stuck’s “total work of art” ethos, participants in this seven-hour hands-on workshop tackle a local design challenge in teams. Learning how to apply design thinking, a process-based approach to problem solving that combines empathy and creativity, participants address messy, world-sized problems through innovation and collaboration. No prior experience or skills are necessary. A willingness to be bold, have fun, and try new things is required!
