'I often feel trapped in someone else's imaginaton and I must engage my own in order to break free.' adrienne maree brown

How to future? What skills do we need to practice? How can we share what we know 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. And here we are.

We are inviting you to use the library space to imagine and practice more caring and connected futures, whether that’s in our relationship to technology, to nature or to future generations. The festival will take place from March 1st to March 14th 2026 in the Reykjavik City Library Grófin (downtown). All events are free of charge and open to all.
