THEIR PROJECT: Je Suis Montréal - I am Montreal

The Montreal Hub hopes hope to challenge the dominant narrative and understanding of what it means to be Canadian/Quebecer as a way to make space for more marginalized identities. They will be working on a photography-based art project that centers racialized and indigenous youth. Through the process, they will be doing outreach work in multiple Montreal neighborhoods to collect testimonies on what it means to be a Montrealer as well as to provide civic and democratic capacity development opportunities to youth. The final art project will be revealed during the final launch party and vernissage event that will include art, music, testimonies, networking and resources for racialized and indigenous youth.

Stay tuned for project updates.
