Shadow & Light: Families Create with Projection & Puppetry by Maziar Ghaderi

Shadow & Light is a playful, hands-on workshop for adults and children ages 6-13, where participants create their own shadow puppets and characters, then bring them to life through light, projection and storytelling. Working together, families will make simple figurines, experiment with movement and shadow, and create a short scene or mini-performance to share on the main stage. It's a chance to make something together, play with light and imagination, and leave with a fun experience to remember—and capture. No prior experience is required and a laptop is optional. The workshop is created and facilitated by Maziar Ghaderi, Sarah Ahmadieh and Ivan Ceria.

Fishing for Compliments by stormwhy

Madeline "stormwhy" Hanitijo (they/she/he) is a queer, Chinese-Canadian digital artist, game developer, and creative technologist based in Toronto with a passion for game engines and DIY electronics. Their piece, Fishing for Compliments, is a fishing mini-game played with an unorthodox controller: a physical fishing rod! This piece is based on their love of the humble fishing mini-game, which is short, sweet, and positively unnecessary. Fishing for Compliments provides a much needed solace from whatever you are supposed to be doing. Ripple Effect, the theme of this year's MULTIfest, is present in the waters which Otis the Bat fishes out of, and also in how whimsy, play, and rest are key elements that permeate all aspects of one's life.
