About
OSAC (The Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils) has partnered with the Art Gallery of Regina (AGR) to present the project titled Moving Pictures, curated by Sandee Moore, Art Gallery of Regina. Moving Pictures is on-demand screenings of video works by Saskatchewan artists accessed through a free
augmented reality smartphone app paired with AR-enabled posters at public locations.
The AGR will present a curated selection of short films to be screened on-demand by anyone with a smartphone. Posters with “trigger images” will be placed throughout Saskatchewan communities. When viewed through a smartphone camera using the free app Artivive, a trigger image is a signal to Artivive to play the video as an overlay seen on the user's screen.

Yorkton Arts Council
The Yorkton Arts Council is a non-profit organization and registered charity founded February 1, 1966. We are committed to connecting our community to the arts. The Yorkton Arts Council engages our community with professional performing artists through presentation of the Stars for Saskatchewan concert series, Performing Arts in Schools, Prairie Debut concerts, school performances and outreach activities. The Community pARTners Gallery features exhibitions by local artists and those touring through OSAC’s Art on the Move touring program. Workshops, artists lectures, tours and receptions are programmed in conjunction with exhibitions. Our annual fundraiser, Sunflower Art and Craft Market attracts artists and artisans from across western Canada. Dedicated volunteers donate their time, energy to organize and present this event to raise funds in support of the Yorkton Arts Council’s programming. Due to cancellations because of the COVID 19 pandemic, summer 2020 witnessed the beginning of Yorkton Sidewalk Concerts, a free musical series created in partnership with the Community Development Parks and Recreation department of the City of Yorkton.
