2020 Go Global, Stay Local
This year Design Manchester’s annual celebration of creativity and design, DM20, is going global, while staying local, with five commissions through 12-16 November (and beyond) connecting the worlds of design, fashion, sustainability, activism and play.
Being locked down has increased our connectivity, and DM20 embraces the opportunity to work with global partners, devising creative solutions to counter the absence of live events.
