Shake off your turkey induced lethargy and slake your hunger for performance, power, and resources in this final installment of our 2026 Night Carnival season, Art At The End Of The World . Bringing performances from climate apocalypse fiction, pop culture, and speculative realities to life in a four hour costume party and cabaret event of catastrophic proportions.
Whether you make a statement with a costume inspired by current climate anxieties, or make waves as a character from Waterworld, there’s a place for every wasteland warrior, mutated kangaroo, and Thunderdome gladiator at our post-apocalyptic table!
