In 2023, Campus Compact, in partnership with the National Museum and Center for Service, convened a Campus Museums of Service Design Team to support the creation of civic and community engagement exhibitions at colleges and universities across the country. Creating an exhibition for Campus Compact’s Compact24 National Conference in Denver, Colorado was an exciting opportunity to present an example for future campus exhibitions and to encourage member institutions to create community-engaged exhibitions. The theme of the 2024 conference, “Now Is the Moment,” was the inspiration or spark for the exhibition. Wanting to tell local stories to enrich the conference experience and root participants in the Colorado region, the Design Team identified several regional universities as potential partners. The planning team envisioned an exhibition that highlighted the ways campuses are “meeting the moment” to encourage conversation and new ideas. Colorado campuses and institutions were first invited to share stories of direct service, community-engaged learning and research, voter engagement, policy and governance, social entrepreneurship, environmental stewardship, and partnerships with indigenous communities.
