Community Film Night Fundraiser
KMCLT is excited to present an outdoor screening of Kensington animator Seth Scriver’s Endless Cookie on Sunday October 25. Seth will be present at the screening - bring a chair, a blanket, a friend (or lots!) and cozy up for a fun night of film and conversation.Endless Cookie will be preceded by a screening of Wayne Salmon’s IAH: A Remembrance, a poetic essay film about the life and migration of Wayne Salmon's mother from Jamaica to Canada (and Kensington Market), as well as Sandro Pehar's short film, Mona in the Market.
Date/Time: Sunday October 25, Doors open at 6pm, screening starts at 6:30pm
Location: 302 Spadina Parking Lot
Registration: Pay what you can. Suggested donation: $15.
“In Endless Cookie, Seth and Pete Scriver’s kooky, grotesquely animated documentary, a rich oral history poetically blended with oddball comedy invites surprising political revelations … This is the cinematic translation of a community.”
Robert Daniels, The New York Times

Land AcknowledgementWe, as members of the Kensington Market Community Land Trust, are aware that we are a settler organization. Kensington Market sits in the traditional territory of many nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit (an Anishnaabe people), the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat and Petun Nations, land which is now home to many First Nations, Inuit and Métis.
This land is covered by the Dish With One Spoon wampum belt covenant, an agreement by the Six Nations of the Haudenosaunee to share resources equally and peaceably. It is also covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit. As a settler organization concerned with land ownership, we acknowledge that we have broken the treaties. Our work for the well-being of this land must include accountability to our relatives.
