About
This little city has four friends inside of it. They live down the road from each other, and around the corner from you. They love and support each other in a way that seems downright suspicious to the outside world. These friends have other friends and those friends have others still, and one of them might be you.
We hear the city speak in our loves and lives and want to collect it on canvases, put it in words, and wear it on our (shirts) sleeves. We take the fun we have and try to make it into whatever we can. We take what you make, and love it with all our collective heart. Submit your creations to Little City, join us in our venture to make the city beautiful, but most importantly, to make it ours.
Alyssa Bistonath – Alyssa studied New Media at Ryerson, but came crawling back to much older media, as all bleeding hearts will eventually do: the camera, of course. Whenever she goes out, exciting things just happen. When she doesn’t, she drinks coffee and watches TV on DVD, which is pretty awesome too.

John Mani – John studied web design at Ryerson and was snapped up to assume web administration for the Reel Asian Film Festival. He discovered that building killer websites is what makes him happy. In addition to web wizardry, John is an amateur photographer and writer of sundry prose. He also holds a master’s degree in English literature for some reason.

Dar Mustafa – Dardana is very good at empathy. She studied English, Cinema and Writing (& Rhetoric) at U of T, but probably should have just gone on a couple of extravagant airplane trips instead, huh? Dardana is known as Dar, and Dar is known for sacrificing sophistication in the name of comfort. She urges you to get a pair of sensible shoes. Now!

Emily Thomas – Emily graduated from U of T with a degree in Cinema and English Lit! She spent a couple of years working before blowing off the daily grind for good. These days she spends most of her time inside, trying to get some words down on paper and make her parents proud.
