YOU'RE INVITED! VP OPEN HOUSE

Think you know Video Pool Media Arts Centre? Think again.

Get ready to be surprised at our first-ever Annual Open House on February 13, 2026, from 2–6 PM. VP has been busy—really busy—with bold upgrades, fresh renovations, and powerful new tools, and we can’t wait to show you what’s new. Learn about our new multi-camera, connected classroom; visit our performance and rehearsal venue, or experience the brand new sound + vision creative studios!

Have you heard about THE PIVOT, our new Education Centre? We transformed the former Manitoba Arts Network space into a flexible, interactive, professional learning hub. Designed for both in-person and virtual programming, The Pivot features a multi-camera setup perfect for workshops, meetings, readings, and more. You may have already spotted our new projection wall, spotlighting incredible artists from VP’s residency programs.

Don’t miss The Output—Winnipeg’s hidden gem. This adaptable venue is built to flex, hosting everything from rehearsals and recitals to experimental sound, video, and performance work.

And that’s just the beginning.

Step inside and explore the Tech Department glow-up:

Listen to the brand-new 8.1 multi-channel Immersion Studio.

Experience the Adventure Lab for video feedback and modular synthesis.

Watch our mighty Bambu Labs 3D printer do it’s thing.

Check out the fully revamped equipment room, stocked with over 20 projectors, PA systems, TV’s, cameras, and just about anything you need to create or present your next creative project.

As Manitoba’s only artist-run centre dedicated to technology-based art, Video Pool Media Arts Centre is committed to supporting bold, experimental practices across disciplines. With accessible resources, sliding-scale rentals, and a deep focus on digital and media arts, VP creates space for ideas to grow and for creative visions to come alive.

Come see it for yourself.

This is VP like you’ve never seen it before!
