South Hill Community INSIDE STORIES
Three leading Vancouver artists, the feisty community of South Hill and South Vancouver Neighbourhood House have combined art and neighbours to create INSIDE STORIES, a surprising and intriguing intractive experience on the web.  South Hill is made up of people from around the world.  Documentary filmmaker Nettie Wild, web designer Jeremy Mendes and photographer Shannon Mendes have spent the past seven months recording and shaping extraordinary and moving tales of leaving, of arriving and of that momentous decision to stay.  Visit our interactive website that will touch your heart and digitally tickle your mind.  INSIDE STORIES poses the question:  If we heard our neighbours' stories, would we relate to them differently?  Can telling your story be a first step in moving from being a stranger to becoming a neighbour?  The questions and stories don't stop here.  Visitors to the site are invited to join the 'hood, be a neighbour and contribute their own tale .
