On September 23, Sunbury Shores organized the inaugural Fundy Film Festival that featured The Art of Stewardship, three short docs created by teams of youth and seniors from Charlotte County. Working with New Brunswick film directors, Matt Brown, Lauchlan Ough, and Jeff Lively, the three teams wrote, filmed, and edited films based on global warming. This project is funded in part by the Government of Canada’s New Horizons for Seniors Program.
