Art & Science at SFMOMA

Art and science may seem like opposites, but they share a common foundation: wonder, curiosity, and a desire to understand our world. Join us as we gather artists and scientists to envision a future where these two realms enrich each other!

🌟 About the Event:

The Future of Us is celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States by uniting communities to showcase collective visions and creative expressions.

Art& is a three-day series at SFMOMA, highlighting the essential relationship between art and imagination in shaping our collective futures. Across July 9–11, each day focuses on a theme, paired with a profound question: what happens when art meets science, technology, nature, and civic life? Expect multimedia shows that feature live performances, community visions, networking receptions, and insightful conversations, along with experiences led by fellow participants and a special pop-up from the Institute for the Future.

💡 What to Expect:

• Activations: Join us in the Koret Education Center for creative activities led by our partners. Picture your future self thriving in the Future Photobooth and contribute to a time capsule with Sincerely, San Francisco.
• Creative Performance: Music, poetry, and dance curated to transform our stage into a space for storytelling.
• Speakers & Visions: Engage with panels and visual presentations that explore pioneering ideas and perspectives.
• Reception: Unwind after formal programming and connect with fellow participants over drinks and light bites.

🌍 Planning:

Parking & Transportation: Located at 151 Third Street in SoMa, a short walk from BART and Muni Metro stations. We recommend using public transit as parking can be limited and costly.
