About Digitally Lit

Founded in April 2019, Digitally Lit is a not-for-profit society that empowers youth from across Mi'kma'ki through the transformative capacity of storytelling.

We develop and deliver youth initiatives that promote digital and traditional literacy; celebrate diversity; build community and a sense of belonging; amplify local books, stories, art and media; foster connection through creativity; and encourage critical thinking. 

We collaborate with book publishers, authors, illustrators, writer's federations, artists, media producers, community organizations, educators, educational institutions and more to celebrate storytelling and art, as well as analyze the narratives presented in local books and media. Together, we aim to foster a more diverse, inclusive, and accessible arts and media landscape in the region.
