Exhibition & Futures Brooklyn NOW!

Futures Brooklyn NOW: Public Storytelling and Creative Placemaking

Monday, April 13 · 6:30–8:00 PM

1.5 AIA CEUs (pending)

Join us for a collaborative visioning session focused on designing for the future and shaping public possibilities. Together, we will imagine what our civic and educational spaces might look like 10–15 years from now. The session will explore how emerging ideas, hopeful design characteristics, and community-centered innovations can evolve into tangible futures. This interactive workshop invites participants to co-create forward-looking concepts, experiment with future-thinking tools, and help chart pathways toward meaningful, community-driven design.

Brooklyn NOW! 2026, presented at the Brooklyn Public Library – Library for Arts & Culture, celebrates the design forces actively shaping our borough today. Opening in April 2026, the exhibition highlights how architects, builders, and visionaries are reimagining Brooklyn’s streets, homes, and civic spaces. The exhibition will be accompanied by five in-person public programs, including a gallery opening that invites visitors to engage directly with the ideas and people behind the work.
