In a city that changes as rapidly and as dramatically as San Francisco, it can be easy to feel very small or very left out. Seeing our surroundings shift before our eyes can be scary or exciting — depending somewhat on how much you feel as though you are a part of that change. Palo Alto-based Institute for the Future, or IFTF, specializes in creating sustainable changes in various organizations. And through a collaboration with Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, the team has created Open City/Art City Art and Ideas Festival, an event that questions what elements in a city make for greater artistic communities and happier citizens. Through installations, talks, presentations, and workshops, the festival pushes to connect attendees with members of IFTF one-on-one, and to contribute ideas and feedback in order to plan and continue to grow our ever-changing city and its arts organizations.
