FUTURITY 2026 Vendor Application
FUTURITY 2026 Vendor Application
Please fill out this form in order to be considered as a vendor for FUTURITY 2026. If you are a returning vendor, please fill out this form again! In order to vend at FUTURITY artists/makers must identify as POC (a person of color), and must be currently local to Florida. Queer futurity, as described by José Esteban Muñoz, is the imaginative practice of envisioning a world beyond the constraints of heteronormativity and the present, where queerness represents a utopian potential that is always on the horizon, not yet realized but deeply transformative. FUTURITY pop up aims to create a space where we can materially enact Muñoz’s vision by fostering community, creativity, and exchange that imagine and build the world we want to see—a world where queer BIPOC people's lives, labor, and joy are centered, celebrated, and sustained beyond the limits of the present.
