We’re thrilled to announce that for the upcoming Exhibition No. 5, Art at 7 Innovation and its community of artists will be a part of a special event held at the Hamilton Technology Centre.

The Intelligent Community Forum (ICF), a global network of cities and regions with a think tank at its centre, will be holding its ICF Smart21 Summit in Hamilton from March 5-6, 2025, hosted by Artefact Social.

In order to benefit from this international event, we have changed our opening reception date from the usual Thursday evening to Wednesday, March 5 so that our reception will top off the evening of the first day of the summit. This is great news as we will have an additional 50 out-of-town visitors joining us to make our event extra special.

Artists: Mark your calendars for the opening of
Exhibition No. 5‘s call for submissions on Nov 8, 2024.

The fusion of art, technology, and Intelligent Community Planning, driven by creative innovation, serves as a powerful reminder of how these elements—working together in our daily lives—can shape the future.

Intelligent Community Forum Smart21 Summit

ICF’s mission is to help communities in the digital age find a new path to economic development and community growth – one that creates inclusive prosperity, tackles social challenges, and enriches quality of life.

This will be two great days of learning about how our community is delivering for citizens.

This conference welcomes both private and commercial entities interested in exploring how to meet the Intelligent Community Indicators, develop and connect the necessary infrastructure, and understand how success impacts social well-being. Through six expert panels and two keynote presentations, real-world examples will demonstrate how various solutions are being implemented to address the six key Indicators. Complete details are coming soon.
