Presented and created by Sharing Our Cultures, 'Imagine SPACE' (Support Positive Action Collaboration and Experiences) is a documentary that shares the first-hand accounts of the lived experience of young people in the province.

The film was created in an effort to stimulate conversations and encourage the community to take concrete actions towards embracing cultural diversity, and get rid of racism and discrimination. The screening will be followed by a moderated panel discussion. 

Film run time: 23 minutes

This is a free event, but a ticket is required. Please reserve your free ticket online or by calling (709) 757-8090. Includes admission to exhibitions and a coffee from The Rooms Café.
