La Centrale (4296 St-Laurent)
Free entrance

The team behind .dpi Feminist Journal of Art and Digital Culture, published online, is ecstatic to launch number 29 “The Montreal Issue” at La Centrale as part of the centre’s soft launch of its 40th anniversary activities! Following its renewed mandate of highlighting today’s feminist practices, reflection and critique, .dpi’s Winter Issue is entirely dedicated to Montreal-based initiatives situated at the intersection of technology, art, and feminisms. Along with the authors, La Centrale’s founders will be present at the event.

Additionally, colour silkscreened versions of the posters by FARD (féministes anti-racistes détonant.e.s) will be distributed at the launch. Welcome to all!
