In Spring 2023, Kate Hennessy and Teaching Assistant Julian Iliev mentored students in Moving Images (IAT 344) in the production of 11 video poems that brought new meaning and creative approaches to representing the award winning poems about Vancouver that were selected as a part of Vancouver Poet Laureate Fiona Tinwei Lam’s City Poems Contest. Our sincere thanks to Fiona Lam and videopoetry pioneer Tom Konyves for all their care and support in the development of these projects and for this amazing opportunity to learn about videopoetry!<\/div>\n
These videos are now on the Vancouver Public Library’s YouTube Channel,<\/a> where the most “liked” video will be awarded\u00a0 a special Audience Choice Award. Three winners will be selected by judge Heather Haley, and awarded in a ceremony at the Museum of Vancouver on Sunday June 11th.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
