PAVED operates an access centre for media production and post-production and an exhibition space for works falling within their mandate.
[3] PAVED's importance to the city of Saskatoon and the Canadian Arts community is underlined by Former Saskatchewan Labour Minister David Forbes statement in 2007 that "It is important that artists are able to pursue viable careers in Saskatchewan ... the 20 Above Arts Centre will provide increased access to creative and professional opportunities for young artistic talent to stay in the province.
[5] Other important contributions to Canadian art include the hosting of an online database and digital archive called Upstream Saskatchewan[6] containing hundreds of photographic and video works, and the commissioning of Coincidence Engines by Montreal-based artists' collective [The User].
"[10] Another, more recent commission was a series of politically relevant advertisement-like billboards drawing attention to NIMBY situations citywide.
In these ways, PAVED has assisted young First Nations people in Saskatoon to express the reality of their lives through art.
