This Halloween, please join us online for the opening of AbTeC’s newest virtual space, the Skins Arcade! Come as you aren’t to this launch party, where for the first time ever, all six of the video games created in our Skins Workshops will be on display. Plus, virtual snacks and plenty of pumpkins!

Since 2008, AbTeC has been offering the Skins Workshops on Indigenous Storytelling and Digital Media to Indigenous youth in person and online; in their community centres and schools; in colleges and university classrooms; and at festivals, conferences and other gatherings. Our 200-hour video game workshops have resulted in playable games that are freely available for download. In our beautiful new arcade, you can sample each one by watching short, edited play-throughs on virtual, old-school video game consoles. Follow up by busting a few moves on our DDR machine and enjoying a virtual snack. Check out our virtual photo booth and then send us your selfies! (We’ll show you how.)
