For this celebration, the programming draws from the organization&#8217;s archives and the memory of its community\u2014living, malleable materials. In dialogue with contemporary creation, it invites the public to rediscover the impulses that have forged the artist-run centre&#8217;s unique identity.  <\/span><\/p><p> <\/p><p><strong>\ud83d\uddd3\ufe0f Thursday, September 24 at 6:00 PM <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><i>(b<\/i><i>y invitation only)<\/i><\/span><br \/>\ud83d\udccd The rooftop of 401 Richmond (or in our studio in case of rain)<\/strong><\/p><p> <\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To inaugurate this 2026\u20132027 season, the opening reception transforms into a temporal portal with the immersive work <a href=\"https:\/\/espacemedia.onf.ca\/epk\/biidaaban\/?_gl=1*84wnbn*_gcl_au*MTczNzE3MTExMy4xNzgwODUxMzA3*_ga*MTIyNjMzMzAzNi4xNzgwODUxMzA3*_ga_0CLQ31X8KS*czE3ODA4NTEzMDYkbzEkZzEkdDE3ODA4NTI5MDUkajYwJGwwJGgw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><strong><em>Biidaaban: First Light<\/em><\/strong><\/a> (2018)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a collaboration between Lisa Jackson, Mathew Borrett, Jam3, and the National Film Board of Canada. This virtual reality experience immerses us in a future where downtown Toronto is reclaimed by nature and by the wendat, anishinaabemowin, and kanien\u02bckeh\u00e1 languages that are deeply rooted there. For the filmmaker, the word <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Biidaaban<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> carries in its three syllables the collision of past and future, through which the present moment is born. Acclaimed on multiple occasions, notably by imagineNATIVE and at the Canadian Screen Awards, this film highlights how traditional languages hold the essential keys to inhabiting, together, a reconciled metropolis. <\/span> <\/p><p> <\/p><p>This 2026\u20132027 season is particularly special, as we celebrate our twentieth anniversary under the curatorship of our Franco-Ontarian artist-in-residence Laura Demers! We have also reimagined how your membership will function for the coming season. We will announce new partnerships in the presence of some of them. All of this around a potluck-style reception to spend time together and exchange ideas.     <\/p><p> <\/p><\/div><div class=\"StructuredModuleRenderer-module-scss-module__Qv95HW__structuredContent StructuredModuleRenderer-module-scss-module__Qv95HW__text\" data-testid=\"text-content\"><p>\ud83e\uddfaBring your favorite snack and beverage to share!
