Sept 29 Deadline for SXSW Art Program

The Forrest Four-Cast: September 23, 2017

SXSW 2018 offers a number of different avenues for participation — click here to see a list of all the ways that you can get involved. A relatively new addition to this list is the SXSW Art Program, which first launched in March 2016.

This exciting element of SXSWeek showcases experiential and conceptual visual artworks that apply emerging technologies and immersive environments to spark discovery, inspiration, and connection. Incorporated into the broader ecosystem of creativity and innovation at SXSW, the Art Program serves as a launching point for collaborations and discussions around the role of visual and digital media arts in culture, technology, and the public realm.

Browse the 2017 schedule to learn more about the various installations that were part of last year’s SXSW Art Program.
