Knowing what a powerful artistic medium filmmaking can be for youth, the Edith B. Ford Memorial Library in Ovid, New York, created a Kid Film Lab Project thanks to a Curiosity Creates grant. With the substantial monies, we were able to afford to purchase the necessary equipment and hire quality instructors to help run a successful program.
