Together, we will step into a world where past, present, and future exist all at once; where the future isn’t fixed but fluid.

What does your future hold? Come find out at the Rubin Museum of Art!

Glimpse your future with interactive forecasting by Vedic astrologer Pallavi Shastri, learn your most auspicious day of the week with Tibetan astrology and Dr. Tenzin Dakpa and Dr. Dawa Ridak, consult the stars with Alex Dimitrov of the Astro Poets, receive an intuitive oracle reading with Ashley Bruni and The Moon Deck, discover the mysteries of I-Ching coin divination, sip thematic cocktails, and enjoy other surprising experiences.

Celebrate the opening of the Rubin’s yearlong exploration of the future and be among the first to encounter the exhibitions The Second Buddha: Master of Time, A Lost Future, and A Monument for the Anxious and Hopeful. Help us celebrate Brainwave, our signature talk series that brings together luminaries in the sciences with experts from unexpected walks of life. This elegant cocktail party includes drinks and hors d’oeuvres.
