Help young Kiwis with Disabilities make their own short film in NZ’s first 'all-abilities' film festival.

Glass Ceiling Arts Collective offers accessible youth theatre classes to Disabled and non-disabled Rangatahi so they can enjoy performing arts together. We are really excited to announce our first ever film festival, "Through the Roof", in support of budding film-makers from our youth programmes across Auckland and in Tauranga.

Five groups of kids will make their own short film, telling their stories, their way, supported by film industry experts. The films will then be celebrated and shared with friends and whanau at a grand red carpet premiere in Auckland toward the end of the year!

This exciting, NZ first, project will not only help young people explore their creative potential, it will provide an unforgettable team bonding experience which will increase their confidence and mental wellbeing (as well as teaching them some practical film-making skills along the way!)

How can you help? As a Not For Profit organisation we are relying on the generosity of people like you to make this possible. Each film will cost a minimum of $1,000 to shoot and we are hoping that this GiveALittle fundraiser will get us well on the way to the magical $5,000 we need. This money will cover camera/sound equipment hire and lighting.

We are truly grateful for any support you can give us in our mission to develop strong, resilient and creative kids with projects like this. We can't wait to see the films our awesome kids will make too!
