Win Two Weekend Passes for Salt Spring Film Festival

February 22, 2023

The Circle Education & IWAV have teamed up with Salt Spring Film Festival for International Women’s Day 2023 (on March 8th).

The Government of Canada’s theme for International Women’s Day (IWD) 2023 is Every Woman Counts.

It’s a reminder that all women, from all ages and walks of life, have a place in every aspect of Canadian society, including in the economic, social and democratic spheres.

Let’s celebrate the successful women around us, reminding today’s youth and girls that their dream is within reach.

Salt Spring Festival is showing various great films featuring inspiring women, between March 3th and 5th.

You have the chance to win two weekend passes for the Salt Spring Film Festival if you share your favourite movie about an inspiring woman or with a strong female lead, with us.

Email your favourite movie, and the reason why, to [email protected]. The winner will be announced on Monday, February 27th.
