Visual Collaborative is an American festival and publishing platform highlighting the intersections of people, commerce, and innovation.

In 2011, in Washington D.C., Visual Collaborative produced an exhibition featuring emerging and established artists with a collection described as vibrant new art.

[8] In April 2019, Visual Collaborative launched an open access online collective called Polaris, also documented as North Star by the Library of Congress, ISSN 2642-9780.

Its subtopics may include health and wellness, architecture, fashion, entertainment news and non-partisan political themes.
