2022 is a moment and time more fluid than any other at any point in history. We are post-pandemic but pre-future, we are together, but not quite, and we live and work in more spatial realms, whether real, virtual, mixed, 2D or 3D than seems possible. We are forging new frontiers in the metaverse, while our streaming services tell us we’re on a single strand of a multiverse. We are everywhere but here, everywhen but now.

Here & Now celebrated our time, our place, our creative energy, our work, our play and our togetherness in the present. It celebrated the robust design community that has the great fortune of calling Los Angeles home. Here & Now also celebrated our mission to re-establish the A+D Museum as a physical space, our own here again. We looked forward to welcoming you, our A+D community, to an evening of uplifting shared experience – and a spectacular party with food and drink, and our famed silent auction of one-of-a-kind pieces created just for Celebrate Here & Now.
