Bay City 2051

Future of Us Event Link ⚡️Bay City 2051: Celebrate 25 years of Success! Overview Imagine it's 2051. Twenty-five years after the Future Culture Collective was launched, we gather to celebrate all that our community dared to build together. Under the wise leadership of people who grew up in Bayview and Hunters Point, our network took action on many fronts to build a thriving, joyful, healthy neighborhood. Once a textbook case of environmental injustice, in 2051 "Bay City" is a model for how to create an equitable, cooperative, abundant, peaceful world. Immerse in a sci-fi speculative future cooperative game to celebrate how you were part of our success story. #immersive #solarpunk #speculativefuture #rpg What to Expect The Celebration Space — Enter a neighborhood transformed: community artwork, stories, and artifacts from 25 years of positive change.

About the Future of Us Festival Launching on America's 250th anniversary, the inaugural Future of Us festival is a 10-day celebration of civic imagination and possibility. We're turning community-sourced, expert-crafted visions of the future into art, storytelling, and participatory experiences. With 100+ events spanning every corner of the city (floral labyrinths, speculative future worlds, dance parties with a purpose, and neighborhood meet-ups), it's a living exploration of what a more creative and generative civic culture could feel like. Organized around four themes (Green Futures, Social Futures, Science & Tech Futures, and Media Futures), Future of Us is breaking down the barriers between art, ideas, and each other, and everyone is invited to co-imagine what comes next. ⚡ Learn more: future-of-us.com About the Future Culture Fellows Program The Future Culture Fellowship is a yearlong program that resources the people best positioned to shape the future of civic life in San Francisco: the community builders, artists, and grassroots visionaries already rooted in neighborhoods and traditions across the Bay.
