Youth PhotoVoice Exhibit

Posted by GHO Admin on October 6, 2014 in Events

Date: Oct 23, 2014 @ 6:30 - 8:30 pm
Location: Halifax North Memorial Public Library


PhotoVoice is a participatory action project conducted by youth from Needham Community Centre and St. George’s YouthNet. The photovoice project was completed over the summer and facilitated by a group of medical students from Dalhousie University.

We asked youth about what makes up a community, what they liked and didn’t like about their community, and how such things affected people living within their community and themselves.

The youth took photographs of aspects of their community that were meaningful to them and created narratives explaining the reasons behind capturing certain images.

We hope you will be able to join us for the presentation of the youths’ work and insightful perspectives.

The event is open to the public, admission is free, and food and light refreshments will be provided. The official welcome and opening remarks will occur at 7pm.
