terminus1525
terminus1525 is a work space for young Canadian
creators. The web site (terminus1525.ca)
supports online studios, virtual galleries, discussion forums and
artist resources. It is a virtual community where emerging artists
– over 1,200 so far – can exhibit, and network with mentors and
peers. The national pilot project, which boasts 20,000 visitors
each month, is funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage in
partnership with the Canada Council for the Arts and the National
Arts Centre.
“ Our art scene will grow because of the excitement
this web site generates. Suddenly, the community actually feels
like one.”
– Erica Lee Brade, Winnipeg
“ What I like about terminus1525 is its open and
amorphous nature…. It’s great to have a venue that is open to new
people, styles and media.”
– Davin Risk, Toronto
" It is splendid. It helps develop an artistic
consciousness, encourages artists and gives them hope.”
– Vox Sambou, Montreal
