A recent return to see The South's Next Wave: Design Challenge garnered a chat with the exhibition curators Tim Hobby and David Goodrowe, of Goodrowe | Hobby. Tim told me that they'd been working on the Museum of Design Atlanta (MODA) exhibition for a year and I was blown away to learn how quickly the installation went—merely days!

I met Tim and David on a visit to MODA for a curator-led tour, which was brilliant! I'm so glad I went...it exponentially enhanced my experience of the exhibition. 

MODA's programming is fantastic! But like any exceptional tourist attraction, it's only fantastic if you make the time to take advantage of it. In this case, I highly recommend that you do.

There are numerous other tours and discussion events coming up (check the MODA website for dates and times), many being hosted by designers who are showcased in Next Wave.

Some of the upcoming event tour guides include: Chris Hardy of Chris Hardy Design; the cg creative Team; and there's even a field trip with designer Lauriel Leonard of Dex Industries, when participants will have the opportunity to go on an exciting tour of the Dex plant! 

Mark you calendars, check the website for holiday hours, and enjoy these next few reasons to visit the Museum of Design Atlanta to see The South's Next Wave: Design Challenge...
