Each year, students at the School of Design at Pratt Institute take inspiration from Isamu Noguchi’s work and its collection stewardship in a course taught by professor Tetsu Ohara. In this eleventh year of collaboration, ten undergraduate students examined The Noguchi Museum’s sculpture garden and proposed new types of sensorial experiences to aid interpretation, inclusivity, and accessibility.

The students’ final presentation posters and project models will be on view to the public in the Museum’s Education Studio (Level C) during select hours on Wednesday–Sunday, May 17–25, 2025. Please contact education@noguchi.org for viewing hours and more information.
