Hosted by Dr. Jennifer Willet
Director, INCUBATOR Art Lab
September 15th 2021

INCUBATOR Art Lab studio is a storefront bioart studio and community engagement lab in downtown Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The studio is a hybrid space including a fine arts studio workshop with BSL1 biology laboratory. Designed with an Art Nouveau decorative / biological marquee and dramatic lighting in visual dialogue with the Capital Theatre across the street, the studio will be used by the INCUBATOR team members for studio-based research / creation. It will also serve as special events space for artist talks, and community or school group workshops. It will also serve as an exhibition space in the front room and window for student and faculty artworks.
