Artumnal Gathering: Future Formal on 11/17
Cosmic travelers, you are hereby invited to a celebration of a possible bright and illustrious future…
In 100, 200, 300 years… How will connect with each other? What parts of community, revelry, and ritual will still be with us in the coming millennia as we overcome the problems that divide us today? What will be the great challenges of our time? On a lighter note, how will we dance? And how will we dress for goodness’ sake?
Join us for FUTURE FORMAL — 8 PM on Saturday, November 17 to 4 AM at Space 550 in San Francisco — where you, our time traveling guests, are the stars of the show! Come dressed in the most dashing and elegant attire from your time and share tales of how humanity can succeed. If we lift up the best parts of ourselves and our species, we can achieve anything!
