The Digital Creation Hub
Comox Valley Arts provides a host of resources for artists seeking to elevate their practice, experiment and try new things. The Comox Valley Digital Creation Hub aims to eliminate the cost barrier to digital tools for artmaking by providing a community recording studio, video and photo gear at little to no cost.
The Digital Creation Hub offers a staffed, low-barrier, community studio that provides one-on-one coaching to the public. Our Digital Creative Hub is 180 sf space built-out with recording equipment and video/photography gear. The Digital Creation Hub works with students, seniors and people of all backgrounds interested in exploring digital tools for artmaking, but who don’t yet have a mastery of these tools. People can sign up to record a song, a podcast, some poetry, an artist talk or an audio book, have a professional headshot taken, or photograph artwork. Participants can have short simple videos produced and edited as well. Access to the studio is broad and we welcome projects of all levels, including experimentation and those new to tech tools.

Community Need – Digital Creative Access
Access to equipment, suitable space, and tech support is essential for artists and anyone pursuing creative projects. An often-overlooked challenge is the learning aspect—having the tools is one thing, but knowing how to use them is another. The Digital Creation Hub supports local creative projects by removing barriers like cost and location, while also offering tech coaching to help users fully understand and utilize the technology to enhance their work.
