✨HOW TO FIND THE VENURE

Enter the Village campus via the entrance off Princess Street. Once inside:

• Keep left and follow the driveway around the building to the back of the main building.

• Continue to the west side of the building

• Parking is available on the left side of the driveway, or

• Continue to a drop-off roundabout at the west wing entrance.

Find the accessible double doors. From there, you can take the elevator or stairs down to Level 0. Once on Level 0, another set of accessible doors will be on your right — that’s us!

Dear Committee Members,

We are so honoured to have Dreamscapes awarded First Place at the Cinema Touching Disability Film Festival. Thank you for recognizing the work and vision behind this project. It truly means so much to us to have it celebrated among such inspiring filmmakers and stories.

Films that center disability are vital because they expand how we understand and represent lived experience. They challenge stereotypes, amplify underrepresented voices, and invite empathy through authentic storytelling. Festivals like Cinema Touching Disability create essential space for these perspectives, reminding us that inclusion in art isn’t just about visibility, but about reshaping the narratives we tell and who gets to tell them.

We deeply appreciate the time and care you put into organizing and judging the festival. Your support and recognition encourage us to continue creating and sharing work that sparks conversation and connection through film.

With gratitude,
Ghost Rooster Collective

A LETTER TO OUR COMMUNITY

Dear Friends,

We are so grateful to everyone who joined us at Tangled Arts + Disability in Toronto for the afternoon kick-off of the Dreamscapes short film national tour. It was such a meaningful way to begin this journey, and we are still carrying the energy of that gathering with us.

Sharing Dreamscapes with you is very close to our hearts. We are thankful for the community that came together around the film and for the openness with which you welcomed us. The thoughtful conversations and reflections shared reminded us how powerful it is to come together through art.

As we continue the national tour, we are excited to keep building connections across Canada. Each stop gives us the chance to express our gratitude, to show our vulnerabilities, and to grow alongside audiences who inspire us with their generosity and insight.

Thank you for being part of this beginning. We look forward to meeting more of you on the road and continuing to share in the experience of Dreamscapes.

With love and thanks,
Ghost Rooster Collective
