Participatory City: 100 Urban Trends from the BMW Guggenheim Lab, on view now through Jan. 5, 2014, explores the major themes and ideas that emerged from the BMW Guggenheim Lab during its travels to New York, Berlin, and Mumbai from 2011 to 2013.

Join an after-hours museum lecture, a program part of Participatory City, with author and former BMW Guggenheim Lab Team member Charles Montgomery who will examine the striking relationship between the design of our minds and the design of our cities.

Participatory City will be transformed for the night into a laboratory for testing the effect design has on the way we feel. The night also celebrates the launch of Montgomery’s book, Happy City: Transforming Our Lives Through Urban Design (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2013), which explores how cities can be used as machines for happiness.

Get ready to be surprisingly happy at this one-time night of exploration and experiments with Charles Montgomery.
