The Shoe Project is Back!
PIRS is proud and excited to present the next edition of The Shoe Project in Vancouver
The Shoe Project brings a group of immigrant and refugee women together, supported by professional writing and theatre coaches, to develop powerful personal stories which the women present in person at a public event. Each woman’s story includes a pair of shoes– perhaps precious footwear that had to be left behind, or shoes that were part of their journey to their new life. Their stories are enlightening and inspiring– and attending a Shoe Project event is a unique and unforgettable experience!
The Shoe Project is presented by PIRS in partnership with YWCA Vancouver.
This year’s Shoe Project cohort includes women from Ukraine, Sudan, Afghanistan, Colombia, Kurdistan-Northern Iraq, Bangladesh, Lebanon, India, Poland and Chile. Join us for a presentation of powerful stories that will stay with you long after the event!
