Youth Art Fest A Success!

December 17th was the date of Harbourfront Community Centre's first Youth Art Fest. It was an exciting event that showcased videos from 4 youth projects here at the Centre. This night highlighted moments from the LEAP Music Production Project, the Graffiti Mural Transformation Project, The Youth Wilderness Adventure Project and the Youth Program's 2008 retreat.


One of the stars of the evening, Jarel, was one of 4 participants who were recognized at the event for their accomplishment in completing the first Session of our LEAP hip hop music production project.
