Tuesday Meetings Cancelled: Resuming Nov. 22

Tuesday update meetings are cancelled due to scheduling, people on travel, construction of the new creative community space, but will resume again on Nov. 22. There is a lot of construction at the hall and we’re looking forward to resuming regular meetings.

Friday and Saturday morning meetings are still taking place.

Art Borups Corners

Nestled in the heart of Melgund Township, Northwestern Ontario, Art Borups Corners is a dynamic participatory arts collective and living lab, where innovation and creativity thrive. The program was founded in 2014, with an arts incubator established in 2021 and 2022 with funding and support from the Canada Council for the Arts Digital Greenhouse. Today, working with students and faculty from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, we fuse traditional and participatory media arts with artificial intelligence, music, storytelling and community-driven, land-based artist residencies to cultivate new voices and bold ideas. Whether through collaborative projects or immersive experiences, our small but vibrant community supports creators to explore, experiment, and connect. Join us at the intersection of artistry, technology, culture and community—where every moment is a new opportunity to create.
