Initial Design Workshops in Saskatoon and Regina
To the ensure our proposal to Canada Council's Digital Strategy Fund was grounded in an understanding of the needs and desires of the Saskatchewan arts community, in addition to precedent reviews and other secondary research, we held two design workshops (in Saskatoon and Regina) in October 2018.
