In partnership with The New Children’s Museum, I co-led The Kids Run This Place, a lively, year-long initiative that brought the museum community to life through multimedia storytelling and interactive workshops. This project celebrated the voices of the children and families who make the museum such a vibrant and inspiring space.

Working closely with the museum team, I designed an interactive zine-making station where kids could explore self-expression in a hands-on way. This creative space encouraged young visitors to engage with art on their own terms, turning their ideas into something tangible and uniquely theirs.

As part of The Kids Run This Place, I also co-produced a series of social media shorts featuring candid interviews with children, capturing their unfiltered thoughts on the museum—what they love, what excites them, and how they imagine it growing. These videos offered an authentic glimpse into the minds of our youngest creatives while shaping the future of the museum through their eyes.
