For a participatory museum: the DOMiDLabs

— Museum Selma sees itself as a place for everyone. For this reason, urban society should be involved in the development process of the museum at an early stage. To this end, DOMiD, the museum's sponsor, launched the DOMiDLabs: Labs for Participatory Museum Design project together with the German Federal Cultural Foundation in 2021. DOMiD provides detailed information about the four labs, the creative process and the experiences in an online brochure.
