Museum Collaborators

We began this project with a small cohort of six museum partners, forming a community of practice that worked together over two years to develop definitions, activities, and tools for thinking about failure in making.  The research team then supported a second cohort of thirteen museum partners to iterate on these ideas.  We hope the stories and resources held here will help you on your journey to explore failure in making.
