SUMMARY:Art Not Shame Art-a-Thon
DESCRIPTION:Art Not Shame invites anyone who is interested to participate in their Art-a-Thon fundraising campaign.  \nThere are not enough accessible\, inclusive art spaces in Guelph and Art Not Shame is going to change that! They are opening a brand new space downtown and are excited to start to welcome the community into this space\, but they need support from the community to help them finish the final touches and ensure the space is intentional and truly accessible for all.  \nAny time between September 1st and 28th\, Art Not Shame is inviting folks to put self-criticism and judgement aside and enjoy the simple act of creating. Utilizing creative prompts as a guide you can sing\, draw\, sew\, write\, paint or do whatever you’re called to do while asking your friends\, family and colleagues to sponsor and cheer you on all while supporting Art Not Shame.

SUMMARY:Reel Stories – Documentary Filmmaking for Youth
DESCRIPTION:This September\, Ed Video launches a new youth program: Reel Stories – Documentary Filmmaking for Youth\, with the support and funding of the J.P. Bickell Foundation. Reel Stories is designed to empower the next generation of storytellers\, giving them the tools and confidence to share their voice with the world. Two separate groups of youth participants (grade 4-8 and grade 9-12) will meet on alternating weeks from 4-6PM to create two short documentaries. Participants will undergo the filmmaking process\, building skills in scriptwriting\, conducting interviews\, camera operation\, lighting\, audio recording and editing under the instruction of Guelph-based filmmaker\, Steve Miller. \n\n\n\n\nSkills in communication\, critical thinking and collaboration will also be developed throughout the program. At the programs’ end in January\, participants will have the opportunity to showcase their completed documentaries for family\, friends and local community members. Reel Stories is more than just a filmmaking course; it’s an experience that equips youth with skills that extend beyond the world of film. \nRegistration for Reel Stories is now open for youth in grades 4-8 and in grades 9-12. Parents and guardians interested in enrolling their children in this free program are encouraged to email workshops@edvideo.org with any questions or accessibility concerns.
