Future Now is Sheffield’s festival of creativity. Through exhibitions, events, performances and screenings we ask emerging artists, designers, filmmakers, animators, writers, architects and performers to open a window into their practices and show us their - and our - futures. This is a citywide platform showcasing the work of Sheffield Hallam University’s graduating students, and we invite visitors to encounter new ways of understanding the world through art, design, architecture, film, photography, performance and writing.
