This years summer film and animation project is called Melbourne Film-makers and is focused on young people who used to attend the Melbourne Centre when it was the Melbourne Youth Club. Those young people, who now attend Space 109 and Fishergate Youth Club, will have to opportunity to take part in a project aimed at bringing together members of the local community.

The project will run as a series of 6 afternoon sessions over two weeks in August:
Wed. 8th, Thurs. 9th, Fri. 10th and Wed. 15th, Thurs. 16th, Fri. 17th from 1pm til 4pm.
