A roundup of major international museum openings scheduled for 2026 highlights new institutions and expansions across the US, Europe, and the Middle East. Notable projects include the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles, the Guggenheim Museum in Abu Dhabi, Kanal in Brussels, the relocated Memphis Art Museum, LACMA's David Geffen Galleries, and the Design Museum Gent in Belgium, among others.
Triennale Milano, in collaboration with Qatar Museums, has launched a new educational program for recent graduates from Qatari universities. The initiative began with a selection call overseen by representatives of Design Doha, followed by a residency in Milan starting April 20. Five graduates—Reema Abu Hassan, Abdulrahman Al Muftah, Adriane de Souza, Maryam Hashim, and Meryem Omerspahic—participated in workshops, studio activities, and meetings during Milan Design Week. An open discussion about their experience will be held at Triennale on May 15 at 6 PM, featuring the participants and the bootcamp team.
