This micro arts and social hub supports the development of work, ideas, and connections through a program of events, opportunities and projects. We bring together and share the work of emerging, experimental, diverse, socially-engaged and underrepresented artists and groups, with a focus on electronic music and graphic art, from Canada and internationally. \r\nThe space was initially launched as a pop-up in 2015 to mark the 10-year anniversary of our collective and studio, Spins & Needles. It was also a response to the lack of accessible cultural infrastructure available to the arts community in Ottawa for learning, gathering and experimentation, as well as our own desire to engage with more diverse artists and perspectives in the local artistic milieu. " } ] } ] ```
