Ada X, a bilingual feminist artist-run center for media arts and digital culture in Montreal, invites proposals for professional training workshops in media arts. The program seeks facilitators to design and deliver practical, hands-on workshops for artists and cultural workers, focusing on digital technologies such as virtual reality, 360 video, AI, video mapping, electronic art, sound art, software/code, and 3D modeling. Workshops should lead to a concrete achievement by participants and align with Ada X’s mission of supporting independent women, trans, non-binary, and queer artists. Selected facilitators receive workspace, access to specialized equipment, technical assistance, and support for materials and educational resources.
