The Harrisons describe their first Future Garden, the "Garden of Hot Winds and Warm Rains" (1995), proposed for a museum in Bonn as “...a multi-layered story told with artifacts, media events, texts, and living materials, which all together engage the probable Greenhouse future directly. It is a work of art that will be garden, prediction, and promenade, a voyage of sorts... The task we set for this work is the exploration of eco-cultural collaborations that would make for a future no longer based on extraction. ... these gardens look at what a future could be like if conscious, mutually beneficial collaborations between human cultures (civilizations in all their complexities) and the cultures of nature (the life webs complicating and diversifying up to the space and energy available) became a norm.” What does this multi-layered story look and feel like in the present? Join us for a panel discussion with people who have collaborated with the Harrisons on Future Gardens including current on the ground proposals. The panel is moderated by Anne Douglas and Chris Fremantle. Featured speakers include: Josh Harrison, son of Helen and Newton and currently director of the Center for the Study of the Force Majeure at UC Santa Cruz. Gabriel Harrison, son of Helen and Newton and Associate Director and Curator of Galleries and Exhibitions, at Stanford University, Department of Art & Art History. Laura and Benny Filmore, Elders of the Washoe Tribe who worked with Helen and Newton Harrison on the Future Garden at Sagehen and continue to advise that project.

Join us for Reframing the Narrative, a powerful evening of thought-provoking conversations, art, and community, centered on the rich and resilient stories of the Black experience in San Diego. This immersive event is part of "Beyond the Line", the current San Diego Made Factory My Creative Journey Residency by filmmaker Rose Sanchez, which explores the intersection of history, storytelling, and community empowerment. The Line represents the long-standing systems of redlining and structural inequality. Beyond is about breaking through those barriers—reclaiming space, shaping new narratives, and building generational wealth and identity within the Black community. What to Expect: Three engaging talks from key Black community voices: Ramel Wallace: "The San Diego Black Experience" Herman Collins: "Redlining, the Promise Zone, and Our Historical Footprint" Rose Sanchez: "Film and Art as a Vessel for Black History" Enjoy a curated selection of Black artist vendors, showcasing and selling original works that reflect the evening’s themes of resistance, resilience, and vision. This event is more than a lecture series—it’s a living archive, a creative gathering space, and an invitation to reimagine what legacy and liberation can look like when the community authors its own story.
