About Aria Forrest
Aria Harmony Forrest is a Toronto-based creative with roots in community work and the arts. She began by volunteering, supporting local initiatives, and taking part in local events that connected people and art. Over time, she moved through many creative spaces — from community projects to teaching art to working in film — always finding meaning in the places where people come together.
Aria spent her early years creating, volunteering, and finding small ways to bring people together. This is where her connection to creativity — and to people — began. Through her blog, Give the Kids a Voice, Aria highlighted youth perspectives and shared the work of emerging local creators. Her work and contributions were recognized by the Toronto Star, which featured her community-driven projects. This chapter became a way for her to document talent, celebrate local voices, and stay rooted in the creative spaces she cared for.
Aria later stepped into teaching, directing a local art studio where she guided people of all ages through painting, pottery, drawing, and other creative forms. The studio became a place where art and connection came together. Her time there strengthened her belief in how meaningful creative spaces can be when people feel supported and encouraged to explore their work.
This path naturally led Aria into film, where she found a familiar mix of creativity, collaboration, and art. Costumes felt like a natural extension of her work—supporting people, shaping environments, and bringing ideas to life with her hands. Film became another space where she could contribute, keep learning, and stay connected to the stories and communities around her.
Today, Aria’s work reflects the foundation she built long before stepping into the industry. She shows up with intention, curiosity, and dedication, always grounded in the people she works with and the stories they create together.
