This fall, the Black Screen Office (BSO) hits the road for a national tour, bringing together Black producers and creatives from across Canada.
Through a series of intimate roundtables, coinciding with the 2024 fall festivals, the BSO wants to hear from you, share insights and discuss how we can work together to amplify Black voices in the Canadian screen industry.
The tour stops in Winnipeg on Wednesday, October 9.
