Award-winning filmmaker Danis Goulet, Indigenous Canadian artists Kent Monkman and Scott Benesiinaabandan and the interdisciplinary arts collective Postcommodity bring their own vision of the future in two- to six-minute virtual reality experiences. Experience these works at the exhibition set-up in the lobby of the KDCC. 12pm to 8pm, free admission.
