Drawing + Camera = Action!





Today we had a lovely day. We all took some tasks and divide the work. Shamila did a great group portrait and we took some pictures on the webcam. It's been quite a ride sharing all this time together!

Lady Gaga's sends personal video message to ESA

This week, Lady Gaga sent a personal video message in response to a student at Etobicoke School of the Arts that was aimed at anti-bullying, acceptance, and supporting those who stand up! Wouldn't it be great if she saw all of our videos that we've made as part of Queer Connections? I wonder what her response would be!!! Check out Lady Gaga's video & the accompanying news article!!
