Reimagining Unconference 2023

Nurturing Collective Futures

August 16 - 18, 2023

Be In Community

Each year, we invite changemaking thinkers, activists, artists, educators, investors, sensemakers, researchers, and everyone in between to reimagine new ways of doing things.

The beauty of an unconference is the ability to gather and participate, not simply attend. And so the format, by design, supports the intention to move from conception to inspired individual and collective actions. 

Because we believe each reimaginer is the drop that creates the ripples, the rain, the waves needed to nurture and nourish our collective futures. 

Exploratory Themes

Event Flow

When change is imperative, like it is right now, it’s tempting to simply start taking action. But, that often translates to duplicated effort or not all voices and ideas being heard. That’s why the first day of the unconference is devoted to ideating, expanding possibilities and learning about different approaches. A way of putting all options on the table so we can both see the sheer abundance of options and directions for our future and connect with them as well.

  • Day 1 : Wednesday, Aug 16, 2023

    Theme: Reimagining – Exploring Possibilities, Expanding, Learning…
    10am ET / 7am PT - Welcome and Opening
    1pm ET / 10am PT - Second Opening
    4pm ET / 1pm PT - Closing of the Day

    We’ve scheduled two ceremonial welcomes for this day so no matter what time zone you’re in or when you join us on day one, you’ll be welcomed into the space.

  • Day 2 : Thursday, Aug 17, 2023

    Theme: Redefining – Exploration, Sensemaking, Taking Action…
    10am ET / 7am PT - Welcome and Opening
    1pm ET / 10am PT - Second Opening
    4pm ET / 1pm PT - Closing of the Day

    The second day of the unconference will find us collectively putting roots to ideas that were surfaced and explored on day one. Talented graphic recorders will help us make visual sense of our future and how we can organically arrive there – together.

  • Day 3 : Friday, August 18, 2023

    Readying – Decompressing, Debriefing, Deploying…
    Opening: 12pm ET / 9am PT
    Closing: 2pm ET / 11am PT

    This is a day for breathing space. For unpacking the prior two days, expressing and sharing. Ideally, before any major work is undertaken, there needs to be a space to come together and energetically prepare and align for what’s to come. Day three is that space.
