The Documenting Engagement Institute brought together nine Canadian artists, from a variety of disciplines, working in the field of community-engaged arts for three weeks at the end of January 2004. Each of the artists was financially supported to travel to Vancouver and participate in the Institute.

A suite of short documentaries about current community arts practices was produced at the end of this period, with the intention to increase understanding and support of this field. These videos have been screened at festivals and are now available to order on VHS and DVD.
