Join us at the Near North Makerspace on Saturday, May 16 from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM for the New Voices Documentary Showcase.

This free public event will feature short documentaries created by youth participating in the New Voices Co-Design Lab.


About the Showcase

Over the past several weeks, youth participants have been learning how to plan, film, and edit their own mini-documentaries. At this showcase, they will share their finished films with the community.

These short documentaries explore identity, culture, and personal experiences, offering a powerful look at stories from newcomer youth in our community.

Come watch the films, support young creators, and connect with the participants behind the work.
