Join artist-educators Sarah Rothberg and Marina Zurkow for a world-building workshop based on their ongoing project Investing in Futures. Through conversation, drawing, and play, participants will creatively imagine worlds and what it would be like to live in them. The project welcomes the radical, absurd, or improbable.
The workshop will be structured around participants choosing from a deck of cards that describe parameters of a world. Participants will be guided to imagine inhabiting these worlds and create artifacts from them. Investing in Futures invites you to consider the relationship between personal experience and global systems, and form a new perspective on today.
This 90-minute, in-person program is free and open to anyone. To keep the workshop intimate, capacity is limited.

Facilitators
More&More Unlimited is an arts collective founded by Sarah Rothberg and Marina Zurkow. More information on their project Investing In Futures can be found at investinginfutures.world.
Sarah Rothberg creates playful, poetic, usually-a-bit-weird experiences that invite you to reconsider your relationship to the world around you. These take many forms, ranging from VR/AR to installations, performances, video, writing, and workshops.
Marina Zurkow is a media artist focused on near-impossible nature and culture intersections, researching “wicked problems” like invasive species, superfund sites, and petroleum interdependence. She has used life science, bio materials, animation, dinners, and software technologies to foster intimate connections between people and nonhuman agents. Her work spans gallery installations and unconventional public participatory projects.
