Reimagine Austin
Reimagine Austin is coming in Fall 2021. Stay tuned for more details.
Reimagine explores big questions about life and death. We have hosted festivals in New York City and San Francisco. But we aren’t letting this pandemic stop us. After the Worldwide Virtual Festival, join us in Austin, Texas.
Reimagine seeks to transform our individual and cultural experiences around the hardest things we face: serious illness, caregiving, dying, and grief.
We believe that by facing death, we begin to live fully. Our bottom-up approach to change focuses on empowering and supporting local communities and changemakers, who we believe are best positioned to understand the needs and desires of their fellow community members.
Austin is no stranger to the unusual.
The community of Austin, TX has not only expressed their desire to bring the Reimagine festival brand to the city, but they have expressed their love and understanding of our mission.
By bringing death out of the shadows and repurposing public spaces across the city, all types of people are invited not just to talk about death, but to sing, dance, make art about it, and even laugh at it-- something this Texas community knows how to do...VERY WELL!
Transforming. Shifting. Loving. Austin. Let’s do it TOGETHER.
Support our efforts to bring Reimagine to Austin
Outside of the New York and San Francisco festivals, Reimagine Austin will be the first new market to emerge since the inception of Reimagine. But we can’t do this without the support of the Austin community. Make a donation to support the Austin festival. Any amount helps!
