White Rabbit's all-day showcase of the startups and projects changing our region

About

White Rabbit is both a space and a community that helps people build the future we want to live in. We've been working with diverse folks to create and grow startups, social impact programs, art projects, and so much more. It's given us a totally unique vantage point to see the awe inspiring range of talent, projects, and new opportunities bubbling up here in the Rogue Valley.

Now we want to make sure everyone can see what we're seeing.

White Rabbit's Festival of Creation showcases the incredible talent and work being done in our community ecosystem. Lightning talks and demos featuring projects that are making new things possible in our bioregion: food & ag, health & wellness, climate & ecology, media, business. It's the evolution of our place unfolding in front of our eyes.

At 7:00 we unveil the Dolphin Tank. We will hear pitches from five Southern Oregon startups ready to scale, with a panel of experienced mentors to provide feedback on their pitches, and identify their paths to growth.

Free & open to all. Every session includes demos, lightning talks and performances.
