A collaborative project between Guggenheim Abu Dhabi and Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI).

Exploring the evolving relationship between art, design, technology, and artificial intelligence, the Assembly brings together global thought leaders, artists, technologists, cultural practitioners, and youth voices to reimagine how creativity and innovation intersect.

Building on Abu Dhabi’s leadership in artificial intelligence, the Assembly positions artists to transform AI from uncertainty into a catalyst for creativity and collective progress.

Organised in partnership by Guggenheim Abu Dhabi and MBZUAI, the programme examines AI’s role in cultural life, from museum design and artistic practice to the future of creative careers.

Featuring keynotes, panels, youth forums, workshops, and networking gatherings, the Assembly is a platform where art, technology, and policy converge to chart inclusive and transformative cultural futures.
