Nouspace Gallery & Media Lounge is the first art gallery specializing in interactive and multimedia art in the region and the first internet radio station in Vancouver.

Sponsored by The Creative Media & Digital Culture Program at Washington State University Vancouver, it is located in downtown Vancouver, WA, inside North Bank Artists Gallery.  With downtown Vancouver designated in summer 2012 as a Digital Technology Zone, Nouspace provides the ideal space for exploring new forms of interactive and multimedia art and the ideas that generate from them. Along with art shows, Nouspace boasts an internet broadcast radio station––Radio Nouspace––and will also provide lectures and performances.

It opened on Friday, September 7, 2012 with a launch party and its first exhibit, entitled Touch:  The Art of the Mobile App, Featuring Works by Jason Edward Lewis.
