Bonn and Dresden

The two Citizens’ Assemblies commissioned by the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn and the Kunstgewerbemuseum (SKD) in Dresden have concluded. Their main goal was to develop a list of recommendations aiming at changing both institutions into becoming more open and participatory than they are today.

In collaboration with DemocracyNext and the nexus Institute, around 35 randomly selected citizens came together for four days in each venue to discuss how the two institutions could become more open, welcoming, and inclusive. The assemblies took place in the lead-up to the launch of the exhibition All In! Redesigning Democracy.
