The Indigenous Media Arts Initiative is a youth mentorship program run by Video Pool Media Arts Centre, in partnership with CEDA/Pathways, that provides focused artistic development opportunities to four Indigenous youth, providing mentorship and learning opportunities in various forms of media arts creation and production. Mentees are paired with established artists from the Indigenous community and provided with 6 months of mentorship and training at Video Pool Media Arts Centre, including one year of free access to our equipment and facilities.  The results of their mentorship will be on display at our Poolside Gallery on the 2nd floor of Artspace, and will be distributed internationally through our Video Distribution department. The mentorship program spans six months and provides both structured learning and open creative processes for project development.
