Step into a vibrant community art space and meet Stephanie Lines-Toohill, the creator of Sparrow’s Nest Makerspace. Her dedication transforms an ordinary venue into a whimsical haven where people of all ages and abilities can connect, express themselves, and experience the power of belonging.

HE(ART) SPACE was filmed in just 12 hours and produced within three weeks as a submission to the Art of Documentary’s One Day Doc contest.

Special thanks to Avery Rogan for the camera work, enthusiasm, and butternut squash ravioli.

Thank you to Steph, the sparrows, the Elora Centre for the Arts and all the artists who illuminate this space with their big hearts. You are all part of my “blessing.”
