The Fulcrum Festival is a regional celebration across Greater Los Angeles that foregrounds the union of art and science as a powerful engine of contemporary culture.

This year’s edition, Waves Upon Waves, coincides with Getty-led initiative PST ART: Art & Science Collide, and offers audiences immersive explorations of vibrations –  musical, gravitational, seismic, optical, sensing, among others – fundamental to understanding human perception and experience and highlighting the shifting nature of reality.
