ongoing project series that connect us to our foundational principles

(in)credibility

A new curriculum that explores media literacy through collaborative, devised storytelling. Developed with a cohort of Bay Area high school students, this curriculum can be re-structured to work with college students, adult / creative aging organizations, and incarcerated arts groups.

Eat Your Heart Out

This series invites artists, culinary professionals, and community advocates to share and explore personal histories around a uniquely crafted table of food. The Forum Collective also hosts dinners and fundraisers under this series umbrella.

Ecosystems

An ongoing program that provides training on interviewing and researching for fine artists. After receiving training in basic interviewing and researching skills, artists interview community members, fellow artists, or activists. Then, they create new works inspired by or translating the original interview.

Rooted

Rooted is an interactive, immersive eco-sustainability theater experience designed for young audiences, focused on environmental care, community building, and social justice. Guided by a narrative-driven storyline, audiences will journey through five immersive rooms— The Earth Room, Community & Social Justice Room, Collectivist Thinking Room, and Expression Room— where they must actively collaborate through gamified sensory, tactile, and eco-social challenges to “save” one another and the world around them. Collaborators include Jord Liu, Linda Maria Girón, Julius Rea, Katherine Bahena-Benitez, Sierra Phillips & Ciera Eis.
