Want to learn something new?! The CFAT Media Art Scholarship program is a rigorous six-month education and mentorship opportunity for five emerging artists who propose to make a media art project. Selected applicants are required to make a media art piece in a medium in which they have little to no previous experience. Scholars are responsible for learning the skills required for completing their piece within the parameters of the program. The Media Art Scholarship is open to any member of the public who does not currently have access to this type of focused education and skill development (current students are not eligible).

C4 builds off CFAT’s mission to put marginalized artists into the centre of discourses and practices of media art and as such, encourages artists and game makers from backgrounds not typically represented in mainstream games culture. We hope to support submissions which might not be valued in more traditional game conferences or art exhibitions.We encourage those interested in submitting to any combination of the conference, exhibition and zine library.
Though our programming will prioritize opportunities for artists and gamemakers with connections to Atlantic Canada we welcome submissions from those based anywhere in the world. Though we can't support travel to the conference all accepted applicants will recieve a ticket to the event.
