About the Festival

The “Arts for the Future” Festival, powered by the Arts & Culture ImPACT
Coalition and Working Group will be organizing an artist-led, global hybrid
festival leading up to and during the United Nations Summit of the Future.




The festival is essential to re-envision and transform the role of arts and
culture in sustainable development. This festival aims to create a more
representative, fair, inclusive, and sustainable ecosystem for artists and
creative practitioners to lead and be represented.




It addresses the urgent need to change outdated systems that currently limit the
impact and potential of the arts sector.
