About the Archives

Michael Sand (1940-2013), was a prolific museum designer and educator who helped pioneer the use of hands-on and technology-driven practices in museums and other learning environments. The Michael Sand Archives contains thousands of Michael’s business and design documents, photographs, media, correspondence, and other material dating back to the early 1960s. The collection is a unique reflection of the collaborative and experimental nature of the design field, and the radical evolution of museum design in the twentieth century.
