Design in the District goes beyond beauty. Meeting the challenges of climate change, a regional housing crisis, and safer streets through our buildings, landscapes, and communities has never been more urgent. In 2020, DesignDC will give attendees the tools and solutions they need for comprehensive design strategies that integrate sustainability, equity, wellness, adaptability, and more. Join us as we highlight climate action, housing, and safety as critically urgent topics for society; as well as the role designers play as drivers for impactful change.
While our strong emphasis on education remains the same our format will be a little different. Live streamed events will happen on Monday and Tuesday September 21 and 22. There will also be a virtual tradeshow where you can interact with vendors and win fabulous prizes, a DesignDC tradition. Those two-days will get you ten learning units. Going virtual gets you an added bonus; as an attendee to this part of the conference you will have full access to all the education sessions for three months. That’s right, no more having to decide between classes – you can listen to it all! Because participants have access to 35 different courses with this platform, we have one all-inclusive price this year for members $135.
