Project: East End Arts Storymap

From September to December 2014, we partnered with East End Arts to explore how the East End of Toronto inspires the people who live, work and play there. We facilitated four workshops in the East End at Community Centre 55‘s March Break Camp, at Newcomer Women’s Services‘ Green Entrepreneurs program, at East End Arts, and Riverdale Immigrant Women’s Centre. We also invited the public to submit their stories to the map. The result was the Inspired By… Story Map. If you’ve got a place that inspires you in East End, you can still submit your story.

 

 

“All of the children said that they enjoyed participating, especially being able to choose the route taken to record pictures and stories. They were very proud of being able to take pictures of the neighbourhood they live in.” – Community Centre 55 Staff
