The Colouring Book

Ever wonder what goes on in the mind of a poet? “The Colouring Book”, a collection of poetry and prose exploration of race and identity, was self-published in February 2006. Now writers from the book are putting on the director’s hat and turning their prose and poetry into short videos. Find out about their creative journey as they embark on a one-week intensive digital storytelling workshop to shoot, direct, and edit stories that document their growth, struggles, and power as young adults of colour.
