Harvard x Design 2026 Unconference Applications Due 29 January

Join us for a one-day Unconference at the Harvard Graduate School of Design on Saturday, March 7th, 2026. This year, we are reimagining our annual conference as an unconference, a participant-driven gathering that centers collaboration, open conversation, and connection. 

Our theme is ‘designing for togetherness’:  How do you bring people together with intention? How do you use gathering in your work and life? We’re bringing together people who design spaces of gathering in all forms – formal and informal, professional and personal.

What to expect:

• Participant led sessions shaped on site, including discussions, roundtables, and skill shares

• Hands on activities that support co design and shared learning

• Networking and cross connecting opportunities throughout the day

• This event is completely free to attend

We are looking for community-builders of all kinds: bring a question you are grappling with, a tool or method to share, or a case you want feedback on.
