FOFA Gallery, Concordia University welcomes Halifax-based artist Jacob Irish as the gallery’s artist-in-residence for its Artist at Work summer residency, funded by Young Canada Works. Throughout the summer, visitors are invited to stop by the gallery to see the work progress, and to participate in the artist’s creative process as he executes an immersive, whimsical sculptural project.

The FOFA Gallery is thrilled to announce that the Tillutarniit courtyard film festival is back this coming August. Screenings will begin at sundown on August 3, 4 and 5, preceded by Inuit games, prizes, country food and music. Tillutarniit is an outdoor film festival curated by Isabella-Rose Weetaluktuk, an emerging Inuk curator, filmmaker and artist. The event coincides with Présence Autochtone Montreal First Peoples Festival, and in partnership with Terres en vues / Land Insights, and is made possible by the Community Fund for Canada’s 150th.
