DARC Logo Mark (Blue)
On a dark blue background, white text reads "Booking Requests" over five cyan blue logos. Text beneath reads "should now be made through AMS" - AMS is larger and in bold. The DARC logo is at the top of the image.

Booking Requests are changing! 

Booking requests will now be done exclusively through our AMS platform!

As of August 25, DARC will facilitate all member resource requests (equipment bookings, facility rental, and programming applications) through AMS. You saw a sneak peak with post production, and now the bandaid comes right off. Any requests made over email will no longer be fulfilled, and you will instead be redirected to book through the AMS platform. All booking requests should still be made at least 48 hours in advance.

What does that mean for you? Fewer google forms, fewer email chains, and more time with the equipment and tools you need. 

What is AMS?

AMS (Arts Management System) is a web-based platform for DARC members to access DARC’s resources. DARC members can log in to book equipment and facilities, register for workshops, and apply for granting and residency opportunities.

When you registered to become a DARC member, we created an AMS account using the email you provided. This is the account that you will need to use moving forward to request equipment and facility rentals from DARC. You can log into your AMS account using the login instructions found on our website.

How can I prepare?

Want to make sure you’re ready for the switch? Here’s how we can help you: 

  1. Book a meeting with the Admin Manager for a walkthrough (note out of office from August 14-18)
  2. Review our AMS login process here 
  3. Need to renew your membership? You can use this form or contact access@digitalartsresourcecentre.ca – once you have AMS access you can pay your dues online! 
  4. Review all current policies on booking equipment and facilities in your membership agreement 
  5. Remember these are booking requests and still need staff approval – we still need at least 48 hours notice when booking equipment and facilities. 
BOOK AN AMS ORIENTATION

To reduce friction and make this transition as seamless as possible, any emails about resources that can be booked through AMS will receive a lower priority moving forward. Any email requests received after Labour Day will be redirected to the AMS platform to make your request.

Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to supporting your future projects!

Art as Therapy: On Process, Conversation and Care

January 16, 2026

This artist talk traces the evolution of Art as Therapy: In Conversation with Creatives, a video series exploring how artists use creative practice as a form of healing, reflection, and connection. I’ll speak about moving from one-on-one interviews to dialogue-based conversations between artists, the challenges of translating intimacy to short-form media, and what it means to document care, process, and growth in real time. The talk reflects on art not as a solution, but as a sustained practice of staying with ourselves and each other.
