Canadian Girls Say . . .

FYI

Canadian Girls Say… is a groundbreaking project that empowers Canadian girls to use photography to explore and speak out on what they care about in their community. Through the project, Girl Guides of Canada-Guides du Canada Members aged 5 to 17 from coast to coast used their ‘photovoices’ to express what matters to them.

Girls’ photos covered themes ranging from relationships and culture to citizenship and protecting the environment. These images captured strong feelings and offer a unique insight into how Canadian girls view the communities they live in.

The Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) is hosting an exhibit featuring these photographs from now until September 2010. Photos can also be viewed in an online gallery available on the Girl Guides of Canada - Guides du Canada website, www.girlguides.ca.
