YBCA is a home for creative thinkers and makers of all kind. Our ability to bring together different people, communities, and resources allows us to pursue breakthrough solutions to the challenges facing our community today.
Our latest venture is a think tank that gathers creative thinkers, artists, activists, professionals and citizens from around the Bay Area. Over the course of several months, they’ll meet at YBCA to interrogate a big question: What is the design of the urban future? The program’s Artist-in-Residence, Palo Alto-based Institute For the Future, will help lead the group through their interrogation. Together, these diverse individuals will create output that’s intended to inspire, inform and shape our community.
