Show Don't Tell 2026: SENSORIUM
SENSORIUM, day one of Culture Push’s 2026 Show Don’t Tell Symposium, invites attendees to play with their senses – namely sound, taste, and touch. Join us on Oct 15 for a place-based soundscape, a living, tactile dressing room, and a lovingly crafted food experience rooted in traditional practices.
Alexis Harrison • Jazz:Community
Jazz:Community is a soundscape of Brooklyn's emotional space and a meditation on place.
Haileigh Nelson • Taking New Shapes: Embodying Liberatory Futures in the Present
Taking New Shapes positions the installation as a living studio where garments operate as portals to memory and possibility. The installation invites audiences to rehearse gestures, postures, and ways of being aligned with the liberatory futures they imagine.
Mai’yah Kau • Gursha: Communal Eating Lovers
To feed someone by hand is an act of love. Gursha builds a small ceremony around that gesture, honoring afro diasporic food traditions, queer intimacy, and the memories we carry to the table.
Join us Thursday, October 15 through Saturday October 17, 6-9 PM at Library for Arts & Culture to engage with the work of our Fellows and Associated Artists through workshops and panels.
This October at our ninth Show Don’t Tell symposium, Culture Push will bring together artists, activists, neighbors, dreamers for three days of conversations and experiences. Show Don’t Tell: A Symposium with The Fellowship for Utopian Practice is a yearly opportunity to get an up-close and participatory view into the projects of artists working at the intersection of their imaginations, social change, and civic participation.
All events are free and open to the public.
