In December 2017, Interactive Ontario submitted a letter in support of the Toronto Media Arts Centre, specifically highlighting our positive experiences with Gamma Space and Dames Making Games.
The space at 36 Lisgar Street was built with Section 37 funds for the purpose of housing media arts organizations, but has been tied up in legal proceedings. Without an agreement, many of the independent interactive developers and companies at Gamma Space will be without space to work and Dames Making Games will be without a home for their programming. Our letter encouraged the City of Toronto to quickly allow TMAC to take possession of the space so that they may focus on the community building work that they are so widely known for.
