The World Around

The World Around is a new, itinerant non-profit organization dedicated to telling the most impactful and important stories of architectural culture today, making the invisible forces that shape our lives visible.  This year, our annual summit will take place online in residence at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City. Bringing together some of the world’s the most innovative international practitioners, the 2021 Summit speaks to critical and interconnected issues that face designers today including politics, indigenous rights, racial justice, education, and health. Offering a virtual and live tour of cities and cultural institutions on almost every continent, the 2021 Summit will feature both streamed and local in-person discussions in 10 international cities.

The World Around is proud to be in residence at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 2021.
