WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

Home Made Visible commissioned Indigenous filmmakers Lisa Jodoin, Jennifer Dysart, and Nadine Arpin are hosting a workshop exploring the idea of the personal archive. In this workshop participants are asked to bring an object of significance to share with a small group. Through activities and exercises, the facilitators will guide workshop participants in expressing the memory and story attached to those objects to then produce a new personal archive: a digital audio/photo file, a mailable postcard or an attachable memory tag.

This is a hands-on workshop and every participant will go home with leave both their original and new archival objects.

Registration is required as space is limited to eight participants.
