ECHOFORM and Canada Confesses Advocacy Institute are launching a national youth sticker contest, and we would love your help spreading the word. Stories in Public Spaces invites youth ages 16-30 living in Canada to transform one authentic sentence about their lived experience into civic art. Winning and finalist designs will be exhibited at our upcoming Artivism Showcase in October (Edmonton) and featured in a permanent digital gallery co-hosted with Canada Confesses. If you work in civic education, youth programming, arts, or community development, please share this with the young people in your network. #StoriesInPublicSpaces #ECHOFORMStories #CanadaConfesses #YouthVoices #CivicArt #StickerDesign #CanadianYouth #PublicArt #YouthLeadership #OceanWeek
