Monument Lab is a nonprofit public art, history, and design studio based in Philadelphia that aims to reframe monuments as spaces for belonging, learning, and healing. The organization centers artists and local changemakers to collectively transform how monuments are created, interpreted, and experienced, and it fosters conversations about the past, present, and future of monuments as a means to support democracy and generational change. Operating within the civic and social organizations sector, Monument Lab pursues justice by addressing how an unreconciled past and the nation’s monument landscape influence current systems of injustice and future outcomes. The group works with partners and collaborators to produce exhibitions and engagements that reimagine monuments and broaden public dialogue, including notable collaborations related to national-scale projects. Based in Philadelphia, the organization engages with communities through projects and partnerships that span local and national contexts.
