By investing in the Walkthrough Collaborative Centre, we hope to foster a stronger, more resilient creative community that reflects the diversity and talent of our region. We're here to support you so that together, we can build a brighter future for interactive arts in Alberta.

We also understand the uncertainty that many are facing, so our goal is to provide a soft landing point and a friendly commons for all who are navigating this shifting landscape.

Whether you are a BIPOC creator, an independent developer working on your own intellectual property, or a grizzled AAA veteran, this is a space for you. We recognize that game development as a career and as a business is a difficult journey.

As a result, @IAAlberta is running a 6-month pilot to offer free access–through a donation-based model–to this space starting October 1. This model ensures that local interactive artists have few barriers to accessing an environment in which you can learn, collaborate, and grow.

As the games industry faces unprecedented layoffs and instability, we recognize the need for a supportive community where interactive artists can regroup, find inspiration, work together, and find solidarity.

Whether you are a student, an indie, or work in a larger studio, Walkthrough is a place of belonging. Our purpose is to create opportunities for connection and collaboration as our teams and studios craft the next generation of interactive arts experiences for a global audience.

We are excited to announce the next phase of the Early Access launch of the Walkthrough Collaborative Centre (Walkthrough) on Whyte Avenue. Walkthrough is a space designed to support interactive artists and game developers in Edmonton and across Alberta.
