360 Sault Media Arts Collective is looking to reinvent itself as an artist Collective. We aims to facilitate access to and creation of media arts through education and production resources. 360 exists to provide support and also encourage independent media artists. We do this through affordable access to production, post-production and exhibition equipment; as well as professional and creative development through interactions, workshops and courses.
360 aims to be the primary community hub for media based practices providing resources and facilities for independent artists in Sault Ste. Our goal is to become a member driven, non profit organization that provides access to equipment, education and space for those who want to create media arts projects.
360 aims to instill the following values:
• Diversity in all its manifestations, including race, ethnicity, language, gender identity, sexuality, class, age, disability, immigration status, and level of experience.
• Affordable and equitable access to services and programs that minimize economic barriers to creating media arts;
• Serving as a northern community hub for media based artists, where access is often limited.
• Providing quality service to an engaged and participatory membership.
• Partnerships with other communities, organizations, and initiatives.
360 SMAC is generously funded by The Ontario Arts Council through Regional Media Arts Collective Grant.
