2024 THEME
This year's theme, Creative Currents, pays tribute to Detroit’s unique legacy of artistry and innovation, while emphasizing the importance of collaboration and collective action as we look to the future.
The ripple effect of Detroit’s design history stretches across the globe, spanning time and space. Detroit forever changed the way the world lives, works, and moves.
Today, the resonant connectivity of Detroit’s creative community creates a collaborative circuit where inventive energy flows freely as creative minds unite and amplify each other's ideas.
Creative Currents amplifies the notion that for our region to prosper, we must be deliberate about creating spaces where the flow of information, opportunities, and creative solutions can move freely and equally. The Detroit Month of Design exists as a platform for creating these intentional spaces.
Today, the creative minds in Detroit hold the keys to our collective success. As we move through this time marked by rapid changes in our economy, environment and tech, the innovators of today embody Detroit’s Legacy in Motion.
Moving forward, shaping an equitable future where everyone can thrive.
