Seven women form Coop MADAAM, a group of designers, artisans and artists fighting for affordable workspace for Montréal artists and artisans. It is currently acquiring a building in Plateau-Mont-Royal.

Drawing on her experience with L’imagier, an exhibition centre in Gatineau, Marianne Breton is developing a real estate sustainability project for OBORO, an artist-run centre for visual and media arts, performing arts, new technologies and emerging practices.

The Conseil has been working with the City of Montréal since January 2020 on an action plan for artists’ studios, with guides, videos and a pilot project to help artists, collectives and cultural organizations develop and sustain creative spaces. This initiative is intended for all artistic disciplines and craft arts.
