How do design, invention, and activism intersect to create fashion that invites us to imagine a more sustainable future? Join us for a panel discussion surrounding sustainability in the fashion industry. We’ll hear from the scientists and artist behind a contemporary piece of swimwear inspired by Doris Duke and currently on view in the Doris Duke Fashion Gallery.

Includes the opportunity to visit Fashioning Resiliency: Doris Duke’s Legacy of Conservation before the discussion.
