SVA MFA Design for Social Innovation Thesis Show 2026

Celebrate and watch the Class of 2026 present their thesis projects, responding to the social issues that ring true today, and will shape tomorrow, including: media literacy, water access, transit inequality, overconsumption, community displacement, STEM education, gender inequality, aging, and social isolation.

Through innovations in game design, play, advocacy, craft, astronomy, and emerging tech, with communities and partnerships, in rhythms and beats, these MFA DSI projects find power in proximity.

“When you get proximate, you hear the songs. And those melodies in those songs will empower you, they will inspire you, and they will teach you what doing justice and loving mercy is all about.”– Bryan Stevenson
