Village Homes: A Radical Plan

Opening in January 2026, Village Homes: A Radical Plan celebrates the 50th anniversary of an innovative west Davis community. Curated by Professor Timothy McNeil and guest curator Adrienne McGraw, the installation showcases the vision, concepts, and development behind the project and its goals. 

This commemorative exhibition takes a critical look at the visionary housing development of Village Homes in Davis, California, an example of sustainable and community living, energy efficiency and design, and a model for adapting to today’s climate crisis.

The exhibition is sponsored in part by the UC Davis Green Initiate Fund (TGIF) and the City of Davis Cultural Affairs program.
