About GAMA
The Gallery of Alberta Media Arts (GAMA)

Gallery of Alberta Media Art (GAMA): GAMA is an exciting new microcinema programming partnership between the Alberta Media Arts Alliance Society (AMAAS) and the EPCOR CENTRE for the Performing Arts Visual and Media Arts Programming. Through a peer assessor selection process, GAMA will program up to 24 Alberta media artists annually running 3 months in duration. The media art appears on a television monitor located in the +15 near CKUA as well as other monitors located throughout the Centre. This project reaches a diverse population of all ages; content must be suitable for public spaces. Each of the selected proposals will receive an artist fee of $400.00.

Every three months, GAMA enlivens the EPCOR CENTRE’s public video monitors with new works by Alberta media artists.   The films are selected by a peer jury consisting of professional film and media artists, administrators and curators. View the works at any time during EPCOR's public hours, and rest your art-weary legs for a screening at the specially designed GAMA seating area in the CKUA +15.

Location: On EPCOR CENTRE’s three video monitors:

* +15 near CKUA; second level of Jack Singer Concert Hall west end
* West end of Jack Singer Concert Hall main floor foyer
* Near Baraka Café and the stained glass window
