Future Festival

How do we future? What do we need to practice? Are there skills we need to get better at?  How and where can we share them with each other? The future is often described as a far away place we have very little control over, but one day, somewhere, someone imagined that we would live the way we live today. So we are inviting you to use the library space to imagine and practice for the futures we want to live in together. Save the date, and stay tuned for our full program to be released in the coming weeks.

March 1st to March 14th in the Reykjavik City Library Grófin (downtown). All events will be free of charge and open to all.

Future Festival Partners:  ENDURTAKK, Rik McNair, Ross McNair, Samtök um mannvæna tækni, Atli Þór Jóhannsson, Halldóra Mogensen, Cerise Fontaine, Kakkalakki Studio, Fernanda Fajardo, Zuzana Vondra Krupkova, Emma Shannon, Aephie Chen, Reddingakaffi, Ingiríður Halldórsdóttir, Yi Jen Chang
