The Centre for Art Tapes (CFAT) is an artist-run, not-for-profit organization that supports the creation of video, audio and interactive digital technologies by providing production facilities, scholarships, in-house residences and mentorships for Halifax-based artists of all levels. The Centre also facilitates the dissemination of media art though exhibitions, presentations and guest curatorial projects, collaborating with groups and organizations in a variety of outreach and community initiatives. Media artists from across Canada and abroad exhibit installations, video, audio and new-media, and participate in colloquia, lectures, forums and master classes. Incorporated in 1978 as the Society for Arts, CFAT has been located in venues throughout Halifax. Current offices are located on Maitland Street in Halifax. The Centre has not had an in-house exhibition space since 1992. Instead, the centre has partnered with local galleries, theatres, and arts and community centres for programming events. The organization receives programming and core operational funding from national, provincial and municipal government sources as well as from corporations, private foundations and individuals. CFAT is currently staffed by a full-time director and a number of paid coordinators, who answer to a voluntary board of directors and oversee member-based committees responsible for programming, scholarships, festivals, workshops, equipment and other functions. Membership costs and benefits vary.

Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions.
- Corporate body
The Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions was founded in 1959 by Robert Maynard Hutchins, former president of the University of Chicago. It grew out of the Basic Issues program of the Fund for the Republic, an organization dedicated to the support of church, educational, and social service groups that fought against the abuse of American civil liberties. The Center was conceived as a place for interdisciplinary discourse, where intellectuals could gather to discuss issues confronting the United States and the world. Over the course of the Center's twenty-eight-year existence, twenty-five Senior Fellows and a revolving series of visiting fellows held daily discussions called Dialogues. The Center's activities were recorded in two publications, Center Magazine and Center Report.
Elisabeth Mann Borgese was one of the Center's senior fellows and also the only woman. The Center struggled with financial problems and political harmony for much of its existence. Internal disputes among the staff led to reorganization in 1969. Hutchins remained the central figure guiding the Center throughout its existence. His one attempt to retire in 1973 was unsuccessful when his successor, Malcolm Moos, was not accepted by the Senior Fellows or the Board of Directors of the Fund for the Republic. After Hutchins' death in 1977, the Center was again reorganized and became associated with the University of California, Santa Barbara, and the Fund for the Republic was dissolved. Even this change did not solve the Center's financial and political problems, and after a series of short-term directors, the Center was closed permanently in 1987.
