Just a heads up! If you plan on staying for the feature film screening, we’ll be taking a short break from 6:00pm – 6:45pm and kindly ask everyone to step out of the studio for a bit and re-enter at 6:45pm.

JAYU is committed to hosting an inclusive and accessible event for everyone. When registering, please mention if you require any accommodations or have any dietary allergies that can impact your time in our space. Light refreshments will be available.

This event is made possible thanks to the generous support of our partners and funders. We gratefully acknowledge the Government of Canada through Canadian Heritage’s Canadian Arts Presentation Fund and the Multiculturalism and Anti-Racism Program Events Stream for supporting JAYU’s Annual Festival of the Arts.

These films are being screened in our studio thanks to the Ontario Trillium Foundation Capital Fund, which has helped us equip our space for events like this.

A huge thank you to all our supporters for helping us bring community, creativity, and art together!
