TSMG - The Foundations of the Successful Screenplay

Do you think media plays a role in creating a more inclusive Vancouver? How does ethnicity shape the stories that we tell about ourselves and our city? Join youth, educators and media makers as we reimagine ethnic representation in media and learn how the next generation is changing how we consume --and even create -- these stories.

MIM will explore issues around ethnic representation in media & storytelling and the importance of media literacy when we create and consume those stories from the perspective of media professionals, educators, advocates and youth.

This event is presented in partnership between the United Nations Association in Canada, Schema Magazine, CoopCulture and co-sponsored by the Vancouver Public Library.

Format:

The Nova Scotia Nature Trust invites you to join us August 10 for a Cape Breton Land Conservation and Success Showcase, highlighting our newest property in the Mabou Highlands! The Nature Trust’s conservation lands boast spectacular landscapes, which include a wide array of natural habitats from old-growth forests to bogs to pristine coastline! The Nature Trust is thrilled to offer this opportunity to share our achievements with all of our friends and supporters in Cape Breton!
