Digital media training/ #arttherapy life skills program getting underway at Intersections Media!

20 Oct

Intersections Media Opportunities For Youth is a non-profit society which offers a variety of skills development programs for at-risk youth in the lower mainland who face multiple barriers to employment.

Intersections’ mandate is to help transition at-risk youth into continued education and/or sustainable employment, while reinforcing healthy life-style choices and positive life skills.

We provide workshop and project-based programs that focus on film, video, and visual arts as a means of teaching fundamental life and employment skills.

Key instructor: Fredrik Thorsen

Art therapist/ youth support worker: Katarina Thorsen

 

First day includes ice-breaking sock monkey session!

 

Intersections Media is made possible through generous funding from BLADERUNNERS

BladeRunners is a Province of British Columbia employment program that helps at-risk youth between ages 15-30 build careers in construction. The Province of British Columbia is the steward of the program and the Aboriginal Community Career Employment Services Society [ACCESS] manages the program.
