Her Excellency the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, Governor General of Canada, addresses the crowd at SAW Gallery and Club SAW in Ottawa during a forum to explore the ways in which youth in Ottawa are using the urban arts to combat youth crime and improve their neighbourhoods. Hosts Oni the Haitian Sensation and Buddha, both of the Canadian Floor Masters, are pictured left.

As part of her national tour to encourage young Canadians from disenfranchised neighbourhoods in a dialogue to consider how they can use art to bring about change in their communities, the Governor General will participate in her seventh community forum on youth and the urban arts, two of which took place on foreign soil. The discussion will include approximately 125 young artists representing various neighbourhoods and organisations from the National Capital Region, as well as decision makers, Order of Canada recipients and philanthropists.

This event was co-produced by the SAW Video Association and SAW Gallery, two centres that provide programs for emerging local artists.
