CFAT is an inclusive artist-run centre that supports artists who use video, audio, and electronic media to express ideas and stories that are under-represented in mainstream culture.
Since June 2020, Centre for Art Tapes has been giving over our social media platform to artists and media arts creatives from across Canada. Artists have free rein of our social media accounts to post for a one week period, and the results will be regularly archived on the page below.
