Community Works Manitoba Inc.

At The Heart of the Matter:

Personal Storytelling in a Digital World

Would you like to explore developing a digital storytelling project with us?

Since introducing  At the Heart of the Matter in the spring of 2014, Community Works has offered public workshops on a regular basis.

We are also developing storytelling projects through partnerships with interested groups. During the upcoming months we will be contacting agencies and organizations that may want to explore this powerful storytelling resource.

​

Past projects include an inter-cultural youth project hosted by Islamic Social Services Association in Winnipeg; a project hosted by Wayfinders, a youth mentorship program in Winnipeg; and a multi-media art and digital storytelling project with West Broadway and St. Matthews Maryland Community Ministries on the theme of Home and Community. The project ended with a public exhibit and screening .    See Gallery here.

Southern Regional Heath Authority/ Sante Sud  is our newest partner. Over the next few months, we will be offering a series of digital storytelling workshops to  Southern Manitoba communities. Other Winnipeg partners with whom we currently are developing projects include Spence Neighbourhood Association and Indigenous Family Centre. We also are excited to be returning to West Broadway to facilitate a second storytelling project. It is scheduled for this Fall. This project will bring together storytellers from Indigenous and Newcomer communities. 

​

​​We provide start to finish project planning and development services, including assistance with community engagement strategies and fundraising through proposal development.

Of course we would love to hear from you if you would like to start the conversation now.
