Artscape's Creative Spacemaking Workshop focuses on anchoring creative communities within sustainable and affordable spaces that provide environments for collaboration, experimentation and innovation. This two-day workshop offers leading advice, tools and a chance to meet the experts during interactive sessions on topics ranging from community engagement to project planning, capital fundraising to governance models. Guided site tours of the Imperial Cotton Centre for the Arts at 270 Sherman and creative spaces in the James Street North Arts District also provide concrete examples that have anchored Hamilton’s creative communities and are re-inventing this city’s identity.

• Arts & Cultural Organizations
