Programs

An immersive multi-node festival of sensory environments, site-specific installations, and socially engaged programs, anchored by the Lumisphere Experience’s dazzling dream domes. Located at the iconic CalArts in northern Los Angeles County, the event explored, through an appeal to the imagination, sustainability and positive futures — intended to delight and open visitors’ eyes to new possibilities.

Visions2030 invites Los Angeles community members from all walks of life to come together at sites across the city for free and inclusive conversation with a focus on sustainability. Eco Chats are opportunities to enhance our creative imaginations envisioning a more positive future for all. Hear from inspiring individuals, participate in consciousness-raising conversations, and dream together about systemic environmental change

Signature workshops engage participants in imagination-opening exercises. Our techniques join participants together on shared dreams, pushing us past our limits, mapping out safe spaces for collaborative visioning, and pioneering interactive scenario-planning tools.

In this collaborative initiative, we invite artists to conceive a “wild-and-crazy idea” that can be applied to a social challenge. It pairs them with practical problem solvers, such as scientists, designers, or engineers. This program provides seed money and mentorship to bring artists’ ideas through various stages toward a prototype.

The program adapts the principles of the "wild-and-crazy" idea brought into reality (the core of Visions2030). It introduces the power of imagination to underserved populations — at-risk teens, seniors, rural communities, and the incarcerated — to show that everybody is an inventor. We have been partnering with Exalt Youth, an NYC-based initiative for court-involved young people.

Visions2030 is committed to producing events that shift consciousness and engage people in solution-driven thinking about the future. We prioritize creating spaces for individuals from different disciplines and backgrounds to come together, exchange ideas, and promote new approaches.
