The non-profit Ontario Visual Heritage Project has been empowering communities to tell their unique and important stories to the world since 2001. We work with individuals, municipalities and NGOs to create compelling multimedia tool kits to teach, preserve and promote the history of Ontario to audiences young and old.
The central component of each Project is a feature length, High Definition documentary on the history of a community or region, complete with re-enactments of historical events, interviews, historical photographs and film, 2D animation, 3D re-creations and original music. Eleven projects have already been completed in this exciting series. Learn More...
