DESIGN OVERTIME
Every museum has its late night, but not every late night lets you take part quite as much as Design Overtime.

This bi-monthly event provides an opportunity to view Design Museum exhibitions until 10pm, but also encourages you to participate through workshops, activities and debates. Always fun, often serious, and sometimes spectacular, the theme and content of Design Overtime is determined by the current exhibitions.

So whether you choose to chat with your friends over a drink, listen to some music, contemplate a show in solitude, or get involved in a workshop, each Design Overtime is unique and only £5.

The Design Museum also runs an acclaimed Talks + Courses programme, suitable for students and teachers.
