CBC partnered with ASIASIE for the third edition of the ASIASIE Market,  which took place at Time Out Market in downtown Montreal from May 22 to 25.

The ASIASIE Market invites people to discover and enjoy a market of high-quality, diverse products from various parts of Asia. The goal is to promote intercultural understanding through market artisans, exchanges and cultural activities.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our "How to Pitch to Media" Workshop as well as our portrait Studio. Portraits taken by photographer Tim Chin will be sent to attendees in the next few weeks.
