Afrofuturism Dream Tank: Building Community Futures

Afrofuturism Dream Tank: Building Community Futures

In Honor of Black Futures Month

The Afrofuturism Dream Tank is an interactive experience where community members come together to imagine and co-create the futures we deserve.

Through guided visioning, storytelling, and collective dialogue, participants move beyond problem-solving into possibility-building—centering liberation, care, and collective power.

Expect:

• Future-focused imagination
• Community storytelling & dialogue
• Bold ideas + shared insights 
• Actionable visions for connection and belonging

Who Should Join:

Community builders, creatives, educators, organizers, students, and anyone invested in thriving, connected communities.

Black Futures Month honors the legacy of Black imagination. This Dream Tank activates that legacy—building the future together.

Come dream. Come build.

Community Expectations:

All community members are welcome at heARTSpace. We strive to provide a safe and brave space for everyone who enters our physical space. However, we reserve the ability to intervene if community members are not being respectful and mindful of other community members.

Health Protocols:

COVID-19, Norovirus, cold and flu are currently making the rounds. Wearing masks is optional. Having a COVID-19 vaccination is strongly recommended. Members of our community may be immunocompromised and/or are still navigating health concerns in public spaces. If you are feeling unwell or have cold/flu-like symptoms, we kindly ask that you please stay at home.

Accessibility:

heARTSpace is committed to providing tools to help all of our community to engage in meaningful participation in our events. If you require accessibility support, please email us at least two days before the event: hello@weareheartspace.com.

Parking:

Please note, you can park in heARTSpace’s back parking lot. As you arrive at the front of the building, slow down, to the left of the building is an alleyway. Turn right into the alley, and make an immediate right into the parking lot. Parking is first come, first serve: 3 vehicles can fit side-by-side & double parked closest to the building (6 cars total). If the spaces are occupied, you will have to find street parking.

DO NOT PARK IN THE GATED PARKING LOT BEHIND NAILS BY KEVIN, YOU WILL BE TOWED! Their parking lot is dedicated to their patrons only. If you are unsure of which lot you can park in, once you get inside heARTSpace go to the kitchen exit and open the door. That is the dedicated lot (directly behind our building).
