CELEBRATE & SUPPORT

On a black background, white parallel vertical lines repeat across the image. In the middle of the band of lines, text reads National Design Awards, 25 years.

National Design Awards
25th ANNIVERSARY PRESENTATION
April 3, 2025

Join 2025 Award winners, design leaders, and museum patrons for cocktails, a seated dinner, and the official presentation of the 2025 Awards—overlooking Cooper Hewitt’s Carnegie Mansion home. The celebrations conclude at the Mansion with our first-ever House Party, which welcomes design lovers and museum friends for music, sweet treats, and encounters with National Design Award winners from the last 25 years.

Book your tickets to this exclusive event: Individual admissions and table sponsorships are now available. House Party tickets are also on sale.

Make a donation to the museum in honor of a quarter century of design innovators. All proceeds support Cooper Hewitt’s mission to share new stories of design and to empower new generations through design.

We look forward to celebrating the National Design Award winners with you!
