MUTEK together with four Canadian and two international partners launched the Future Festivals think tank in March 2023. Following Frankie Decaiza Hutchinson’s opening provocation, the panel invites Future Festivals partners Naomi Johnson, Executive Director of imagineNative, FTA’s David Lavoie, New Now Festival’s Jasmin Grimm, and MUTEK's Maurice Jones, for a call to action on not only how to rethink the future of festivals but more importantly how to build it together.
