Call for Artist for Future of Us Festival
Future of Us is a nonprofit coalition-led civic initiative that is inviting the public to join us in reimagining what could be. The initiative is anchored by a 9-day festival, launching this summer in San Francisco on the 250th anniversary of the U.S. through storytelling, creative inquiry, and exploration of civic futures.
For the past year – from Sitka to St. Augustine – we’ve been touring the US hosting conversations for communities to imagine the futures they actually want.
People have been sketching, brainstorming, and dreaming up speculative stories across four themes: Social Futures, Green Futures, Media Futures, and Science & Tech Futures.
Now we’re inviting you to turn these visions into works of art.
We’re hiring illustrators and digital artists (or anyone whose work can be easily digitized) to translate community visions and sketches into beautiful, original cover art capturing each story.
Your work will be exhibited at the Future of Us festival in San Francisco this July in what we’re calling the “Hall of Anythings”.
It will also be shared as part of a public archive of civic imagination, launching on the country’s 250th anniversary. You can help us turn the gaze of this milestone moment towards what people want for the future of their country and communities.
