Storytelling

I Love Avondale uses storytelling as a means to celebrate our people and places, promote local initiatives and events, keep our community aware and informed, and encourage people to participate locally. We primarily tell these stories via the initiatives below and we regularly share events and local news on our Social Media pages.

Social media

When I Love Avondale began solely as a social media project in 2014, it was the only Facebook or Instagram page consistently shining a light on the neighbourhood by sharing local stories and images from around the area. As a result, I Love Avondale became an online community where people could learn more about what was happening locally, share what was important to them and connect with each other.

Over time, the role of our social media has evolved as other Avondale pages, websites and even print publications were created. However, our social media approach essentially remains the same: to celebrate the good in our hood, promote events and initiatives, tell local stories, raise awareness and encourage people to get involved in what’s happening locally.
