Instrument of Change: Beny Esguerra

In the second video of our Instrument of Change series, learn about Juried Artist Beny Esguerra's project "Wheel it Studios," a hands-on mobile recording studio project that engages artists primarily from the Jane-Finch community while reducing the precariousness of them having to travel from one neighborhood to another due to street-related tensions. Support artists like Beny so they can continue their important work during our End of Fiscal Year Campaign.

Thank you to our Allies & Supporters!!
