The New Media Workspace was created in 2002. Prior to this innovation, Kingston did not have significant infrastructure for independent media production, despite a small community of film-makers and producers. This a noteworthy omission considering that other similar sized communities, such as Peterborough, have long maintained infrastructure for production support. In our first year, our activities were primarily concerned with assisting local artists in documenting and archiving their work.
In 2003 we were able to acquire the first of our base equipment needs through a matching-grant from Cultural Spaces Canada (Canadian Heritage) and the Davies Charitable Foundation, but it was the activities supported in 2004 and 2005 by the Healthy Community Fund which afforded the NMW its most impressive achievements to date including a media camp, workshops and the acquisition of important new media equipment. These accomplishments were guided by project staff with the New Media Committee, a member-led advisory group for the Workspace.
