The Annual Members’ Screening is a fantastic opportunity to meet your fellow members, and our board of directors, while exhibiting your media artwork to the Hamilton community. This year we are accepting video works, audio works, and video documentation of installations or performances, in order to highlight the vast diversity of our members’ artistic practices.
