A panel of designers each present a short story highlighting the power of design WITH disability—rather than for disability—and with the mantra “nothing about us without us” evidenced in their process. Panelists include:
Anaiss A., teen design consultant for Make Just Right youth design consultancy
Ashley Shew, assistant professor, science, technology and society, Virginia Tech University
Peter Sloan, director of interior design, HOK global design, architecture and engineering
After individual stories, the panelists engage in a conversation moderated by disability activist Madison Zalopany, the museum’s manager, community and access programs.
