More Information Register/Tickets


This collective leadership program will wholistically empower IBPOC Content Creators, Creatives & Artists with the capacity to be resilient storytellers, and produce their own content + artistic works. Enabling IBPOC talent to be their authentic selves, and gain creative and financial control of what they produce.

Featuring a stellar line up of Mentors, Facilitators and Guests Speakers, including Jennifer Podemski (Redcloud Studios Inc.), Rochelle Grayson (Mosaic Accelerator), Reena Samra (BIPOC Healing & Wellness Centre), Soni Dasmohapatra, Cody Lightning & Joshua Jackson (Hey Viktor!) and Hengameh E.

This program is designed for IBPOC Content Creators, Creatives & Artists, who are committed to being their own creative ecosystem, and passionate about sharing their stories – within our existing narrative landscape.

Space is limited to 10 participants, and each participant will receive a $250 stipend.

We'll ask, explore and answer the question: what do ideal creative leadership models look like for the individual + communities that are underrepresented in Canada, who want to share their stories?

During this weekend, we'll cover:

  • Leading Within, Leading on the Outside: setting the context, reflection and sharing; to empower our health and creative energy as IBPOC
  • IBPOC Creative Leadership and Storytelling Exchanges: mentorship on being our authentic selves, embracing our superpowers and embodying our true leadership and storytelling journey
  • Embodying Empowered IBPOC Creative Leadership Now: embracing our unique role as change makers and creators for social justice, liberation, and to create our own works
