This Saturday, October 13 at noon, as part of the Planet in Focus Environmental Film Festival, there will be a free NFB animation workshop for kids. Children aged 5 to 12 will be able to create their own claymation movie, learning all about animation techniques and the environment at the same time. Space is limited, so make sure you pre-register – email info@planetinfocus.org or call 416-531-1769.

And you and the kids can make a whole day of it if you drop by ahead of the workshop; there’s a special free animated film programme at 10:00 am. It includes animated shorts for kids from around the world, including The Little Bird and the Leaf, Hanging Around, Colosse: A Wood Tale, The Girl and the Fox, The Slug and the Snails, and many more.

Obsessed with watching movies as far back as she can remember, Pam loves film enough to have two university degrees in the subject. When not focused on a movie screen, she can usually be found reading, cooking, touring vineyards, or planning where to spend her vacation time.
