To better understand the human condition, fully experience the world around us and challenge our assumptions, we need art, now more than ever.
More engagement, connection and inspiration are what the arts promise us and what you are bringing to life, collectively, through this unique gathering of the arts and culture in Canada.
The Canada Council for the Arts is a proud supporter of the MUTEK festival, and I would like to extend my sincere congratulations to all those involved.
