Title: People in Winnipeg
Description: Friesens Printing, n.d. (2017). Hard bound, oblong octavo, Pp48. As new in black laminated boards. 450 grams. A look at the lives of people who make up the city's character. From the Synopsis: Based on Brandon Stanton's series 'Humans of New York,' People in Winnipeg is all about the everyday person. It is about highlighting the city's diversity - through photographs, and words -- because everyone has a story. The Global Issues students, as well as the photography students at Tec-Voc, set out to meet these everyday people. To photograph them. To listen to them, and ultimately, to share their stories and quotes through the book. After weeks of organizing, designing and editing through Tec-Voc's Graphic Arts department (led by Ophelia Petit); the book was created, and published. Any proceeds from People in Winnipeg will be shared amongst four local charities selected by the Global Issues students. The project was introduced to the students as part of the Take Action community-based project of the Manitoba Global Issues curriculum. The people who are included in this book either verbally agreed to be included in the project, or signed a waiver indicating they agreed. Thank you to all who participated in making it happen. We welcome all reasonable offers on our books.
