We are all part of an unfolding story
TimeWeaving is a series of events in Fall 2026 that connects Gulfport’s past, present, and future through participatory public art, storytelling, time capsules, and labyrinth walks in Gulfport’s Chase Park.
Sponsored in part by a Creative Pinellas Art Everywhere grant, this series brings a sequence of once-in-a-lifetime events to Gulfport.

Gulfport Arts & Heritage is proud to announce that, on December 31, 2026, as part of our TimeWeaving series, we will bury a time capsule to be opened in 2050. And we are seeking contributions!
Interested in submitting an item? Think about your contribution to the 2050 time capsule as a message to the future. What do you want the people of 2050 to know about what Gulfport was like in 2026: What did our community or sound like? What was important to us? What are our hopes for the years to come?
Items eligible for inclusion include photographs, brochures, bulletins or newsletters, menus, rosters, stickers, newspaper clippings, drawings or other original artwork, sound recordings, thumb drives, mementos, and souvenirs. All items should fit the following criteria:

- 3D items should be small, no larger than 4″x4″x6″ (about the size of a standard mug)
