HORIZON: The Continued Relevance of Artist-Run Centres Today
The Power Plant co-presents this panel discussion with Artist-Run Centres and Collectives Conference. The panel, which will explore the raison d'etre of artist-run centres, what they do, and how artists can get involved, will be moderated by Clayton Windatt, Director of ARCA, with panelists Rihkee Strapp, Executive Director of White Water Gallery, Teajai Travis, Executive Director of Artcite Inc. and Bruce Eves, former assistant-programming director at the Centre for Experimental Art and Communication (CEAC).
This program is part of a larger ad hoc collective, organized by The Power Plant, to secure a Toronto Arts Council grant from the Open Door funding stream to research the needs of artists in the Greater Toronto Area, and how contemporary art/film nonprofits may address some of those needs.
