In the context of both exhibitions, the event Work in Progress On Stage will take place. Ten lecturers present their research and will debate, led by Design curator Jorn Konijn, about the role of the designer, the end user and the cooperation partners in their research. ‘Design Specialist’ Gert Staal is invited to reflect critically on the projects in this debate. At the end of the afternoon you can visit the exhibition, where a festive drink takes place at 16.30.
Date and time: October 24, 13.00-16.00
