The discussion pivots on three questions, with each presenter rotating the role of provocateur - to invite meaningful conversation about the nature (and future) of institutional practices.

The conference is co-organized by The Rooms with Eastern Edge Artist-Run Centre, St. Michael's Printshop, and Grenfell Gallery (Memorial University). The event is free to the public.
