Apathy is Boring?

Apathy is Boring is a non-partisan charitable organization that uses art and technology to educate youth about democracy. Their main campaign is #5MMV.

#5MMV is about raising awareness about the power of numbers, the power for youth across the country to mobilize and together, create meaningful impact in their communities and Canada at large.

We invite you to peruse the content on these pages, and to share widely! @canadacouncil #artscanada
