MISSION STATEMENT
The Metropolitan Museum of Design Detroit Provides Access to Educational Enrichment
and Experiential Opportunities to Diverse Communities.
The Metropolitan Museum of Design Detroit (MM-O-DD, pronounced “mod”) is the singular design museum in Detroit. As the only UNESCO City of Design in the United States, we take our HOME of Detroit and our place in this community to heart. MM-O-DD provides access to educational enrichment and experiential opportunities to boost the design industry to diverse communities. As such, the three pillars of MM-O-DD are: Brainworxx, Biodesign, and Honoring Black Design. Each pillar ties the world of design to the community of Detroit and the surrounding areas with strategic goals to expand to the whole state of Michigan and beyond through an established local-to-global resources pathway, collaboration opportunities, and community participation/participants. As a younger museum, established in 2015, MM-O-DD is a 100% volunteer-run 501c3 not-for-profit. We are now fundraising to hire a small but mighty team to boost our reach to the next phase of community programming.
