Twelve Arts Literary and Performance Incubator, founded on the three principles of education, incubation and experimentation, brought a new aspect to the Waterloo Arts District’s mix of shops, bars and galleries. Opened in spring 2016 under the auspices of artistic director Daniel Gray-Kontar, the space hosts everything from poetry open mics to theater productions to classes and workshops. It describes its core mission as “to nurture youth and adults in the mission of creating literary works that inspire communities to dream and build more just and equitable communities.”
