The Grid: Upload
Introducing a new initiative connecting the worlds of art + tech

Join the Who’s Who of the local art + tech community for The Grid: Upload and learn more about The Grid’s mission, many upcoming activities, and the people behind the scenes.

The Grid connects the worlds of art and technology to fuse their strengths. We are on a mission to design best practices and find innovative models for collaboration between artists and technologists to help shape the world of tomorrow.

The Grid was launched as a European initiative at San Francisco’s Gray Area in December 2019 and has since transformed into an international multi-stakeholder platform of artists, technologists, cultural institutes, arts organizations, policy makers, and tech companies.
