Enhancing the teaching and research activities of the UC Davis
Department of Design, the Design Museum explores how design
shapes, improves and makes viable the objects, technology and
environments we use, inhabit and experience every day.
Our Commitment
The UC Davis Design Museum is a founding adopter of the Green
Museums Initiative. The initiative is a set of five
principles that propel museums to become environmental
leaders and is administered by the California Association of
Museums and the Green Museums Initiative.
The UC Davis Design Museum opens its 2024-2025 season on Nov. 1
with “Sonic Horizons: A Sensory Immersive Video Installation.”
The exhibition runs through Nov. 22.
Devised and curated by graduate student Maral Salehian,
this multi-screen installation showcases nature videos centered
around landscape themes. This sensory-rich immersive experience
aims to promote well-being and inspire a deeper connection to
nature.
The Design Museum, part of the College of Letters and Science and
free to the public, is in 124 Cruess Hall.
