BIPOC communities are disproportionately underrepresented in all media. How do past images unearthed from personal and institutional archives come to shape new stories?

The Home Made Visible tour brings a personal lens to Indigenous and visible minority archives through FREE exhibitions, screenings, and workshops in libraries across Canada.

The Program consists of six short films and a mixed media installation by our commissioned artists. Learn more about the artists at homemadevisible.ca/artists

WORKSHOP
'What Is Home?' | Registration Now Open: https://goo.gl/forms/SUbKW4353EfsWcQq1

Facilitator: Alejandra Higuera
Number of participants: 10-15

Date: Monday, Jan 7, 2019
Time: 5 - 8pm

Description:
In this three hour workshop participants will explore the meaning of home through free writing exercises and games. Participants are asked to bring an object that, to them, represents home. We will then create a zine with scanned photos of the objects and also tell a story about what the object and how it connects to our meaning of home.

We highlight the importance of telling our own stories and making content outside the digital realm and creating our own archival material.

This is a hands-on workshop and every participant will come out with a zine that they can take home.
