In case you’re curious to learn more…I love nothing more than hearing what someone imagines The Museum of Ideas to be. One of my favorite conversations about The Museum happened in Barcelona, Spain, where a new friend offered the visual of a spacious, high-ceilinged room with ideas on post-it notes hanging from the ceiling with string!

This is a bit the point. It’s open to interpretation and imagination.

The concept of The Museum of Ideas was created in part by recognizing the struggle for thinkers in organizations of all types to find time and space (or a mandate) to explore thought for its own sake. In our time, paradigms of efficiency, productivity, and politics can constrain us. All of which have their place, but the point here is to set aside a place for thought, too.

We see a world where ideas are embraced as art forms, where people think freely, ask questions with confidence, and seek together to shape our better future through collaborative imagination and curious exploration.​

As such, this is a conversation slowly building around wise minds, creative souls, contradicting narratives, and ideas revelations.

The Museum will continue to evolve with imagination. For now, you might consider it to be a 'museum of the mind,'—or even a 'museum of what's possible.'
