The Arts Incubator

Winnipeg, Manitoba

As a comprehensive skills development and participatory research initiative, the program encompassed a wide spectrum of creative and technical learning opportunities. Over six months, artists, creatives, and researchers engaged deeply with generative AI concepts, experimented with building custom GPTs, and applied agentic design principles to collaborative storytelling and narrative projects. The program further emphasized transversal creation, data management, automation, and rapid application development, while fostering advanced exploration of storytelling, narrative structures, and systems design. By bridging these interdisciplinary domains, the initiative equipped participants with the technical fluency, creative agility, and AI literacy needed to navigate emerging AI-driven workflows and co-create innovative, human-centred solutions across media, research, and cultural production.

Join members of our team on February 15, for a national press conference for National Kindness Week 2023 that will be broadcast on CPAC.

Canada’s Second annual National Kindness Week will be celebrated this year from February 12-19, 2023. It was created with the aim of encouraging Canadians to engage in acts of kindness, volunteerism, and charitable giving.

This week-long event will bring together people from all walks of life and organizations from coast to coast to coast to share resources, information, and tools to foster more acts of kindness. This year’s live-streamed celebrations will have a special focus on being kind to the planet and to each other.
