The Factory: Hamilton Media Arts Centre’s mission is to develop and support a vibrant, sustainable community where people (members, non-members and staff) love to be and visit frequently. The Factory represents Hamilton’s diverse communities and offers them a wide range of artistic facilities. Members see themselves as owners and are actively involved not only as users but also as managers. The Factory is a site for interaction and discussion around art and technology. The Factory is a place where accessibility to the means of communication is a priority.
