In a world where anxieties about climate change, social crises, and digital disconnection grow ever more pressing, Soft Futures offers a hopeful and healing perspective.

Together, they’ll dive into their creative processes and the powerful ways their work invites us to imagine a softer, more connected future.
Don’t miss this chance to engage in a thought-provoking conversation about art, healing, and the future we can create together.
🗓️ Date: Saturday April 5th
