Education

Design is part of our everyday lives, offering fascinating perspectives and connections with a wide range of matters ranging personal memories to global issues. Design Museum provides an active learning environment for people of all ages interested in design.

Our aim is to present and illustrate the practices of professional design to different audiences and to generate interest in the broad field of design. This is done with temporary exhibitions and the museum’s permanent exhibition, Finnish Form. The temporary exhibitions include lectures, talks, visits by experts and workshops open to the public.

Welcome to enjoy a learning experience at Design Museum!
