The Arts Incubator

Administrator

The Arts Incubator is a participatory arts collective and living lab, based in Winnipeg, Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario. It's a space where innovation and creativity thrive. It's latest iteration was launched in 2021 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.

The Melgund Integrated Nuclear Impact Assessment Project (MINIAP) is a community-driven research and policy initiative examining the environmental, social, cultural, economic, and long-term safety impacts of the proposed Deep Geological Repository (DGR) for Canada’s used nuclear fuel in Melgund, Ontario. Aligned with the federal impact assessment process led by the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada and the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, and focused on the proposal advanced by the Nuclear Waste Management Organization, this integrated project analyzes groundwater protection, nuclear waste storage safety, Indigenous rights and treaty interests, environmental monitoring, long-term radioactive waste containment, emergency preparedness, regulatory oversight, community health, regional economic impacts, and intergenerational stewardship. Designed to enhance public participation, transparency, and evidence-based decision-making, the Melgund Integrated Nuclear Impact Assessment Project provides accessible analysis, technical review, and community engagement resources to support informed input into Canada’s nuclear waste management strategy and the federal impact assessment process.
