Our Story

Seattle’s pioneering, women + non-binary led new media arts collective bringing tech-forward, accessible and immersive art to the city. We bridge technology leaders, underserved interdisciplinary artists, and young minds. We connect the physical alongside the digital (IRL + URL) through place-based stories that imagine our collective future. Our values are inspired by emergent strategies of nature, and our systems are powered by our communities.

With decades of experience curating immersive artworks, public events, digital programming, and gastronomic pop-ups, Future Arts brings together local and international creative talent to enrich and enliven Seattle neighborhoods and evolve global networks.

We are building deeply integrated ecosystems for the creative economy to thrive, questioning the ways our systems have worked together. How do we remain fluid, yet structured? Let’s look to mycelium’s immense resource sharing structures, let’s build the way trees protect each others’ roots, let’s ask dandelions’ resilience to cross-pollinate new ideas, and let’s most importantly ask each other — who are you, why are you, and how are you? Who are your ancestors and what stories have not been heard in our world yet? How do we not lose the sense of who we are, our true natures.

How do we have technology reflect who we are, not define who we are?
