Abstract: Mallory and I are working with Lois Conley, ED and CEO of the Griot Museum of African-American History and Culture. Based on our research and conversations with Lois, a key design challenge we (Mallory, Lois, and I) have for the Griot is how can we ensure the financial well-being of the Griot Museum? We have come up with a list of 10 possible projects, but are still interested in hearing more ideas from the class and from Lois. Since we were on spring break last week (yay Harvard and MIT having different spring break schedules), we’re still trying to get a few more calls in with Lois before really solidifying the project plan.
You can find our slides here and our design brief here. Note that they are still a work in progress (I have to post because I’m heading to class now!).
