Housing Justice Dialogue #1: Films Created by Young Artists on the Housing Crisis in Metro Vancouver
.
In the fall of 2012, the Housing Matters Media Project invited ten young emerging media artists to explore issues relevant to Vancouver’s housing crisis and to possible solutions.
The Housing Matters project has resulted in a remarkable collection of short films on housing by these youth artists. Come and see these films, followed by a panel of local and national housing experts discussing the issues highlighted by these films.

My immediate thought was tangential: how nice that row of houses looked without the huge side setbacks. Like San Francisco’s Painted Ladies.
