This session, hosted by the Mayor’s Office of Arts and Culture, MASS Design Group, and the Hutchins Center, delves into the intersection of community violence, public safety, and design. Drawing on the experiences and impact of the Gun Violence Memorial Project, which has been on display in Boston since the end of August, this conversation examines how we can redirect public attention to gun violence in ways that genuinely honor community mourning, avoiding exploitation, inspiring meaningful change.

MEMORIAL TOUR:  Join MASS Design for a tour of the Gun Violence Memorial at 4:30 pm (Inside City Hall, plaza entrance) prior to the panel discussion.
