Included in tonight’s reception is a 25-minute video on the TRACKS: 7th Canadian Community Play & Art Symposium, which launched the Train of Thought. Edited by Brian Ley, the video features excerpts from the symposium opening in Stanley Park, The Big House cultural sharing feast, and words from Indigenous and settler/immigrant artists on their experiences collaborating to create art with, for and about their communities

On page 29 of the Festival Program guide, there is a writeup on AHA MEDIA
The Festival is thrilled to partner with the DTES’s AHA Media to provide social media coverage (video/photos/blog) of the Heart of the City Festival. AHA Media gives voice to our local community and provides services for individuals and organizations to share their news and special events on a broader scale through social media. Founded in 2008 by local artists April Smith, Hendrik Beune, and Al Tkatch, AHA Media previously collaborated with Fearless City Media and has an ongoing working relationship with W2Community Media Arts and various other organizations and individuals in the DTES community. The members of AHA Media describe themselves as “definitely not mainstream media”. Based in Vancouver’s DTES, their style is described as non-invasive and unassuming.
