Upcoming event!
Intergenerational Dialogue & Arts Event
Saturday November 30th 2024
Time: 9:30 AM – 4:30 PM
Location: MEM (Centre des mémoires montréalaises)
Address: 1210 boulevard Saint-Laurent, Montréal, QC H2X 2S5
This is the fourth arts event inviting 2SLGBTQI+ participants across generations in Montreal/Tiohtià:ke to connect, converse and create.
Through guided self-reflection and sharing by facilitators and teaching artists, participants will explore poetry and printmaking with stamps to create works on the theme: “What does inner peace feel like from my queer perspective?”
Our goal is to strengthen relationships in the English-speaking 2SLGBTQIA+ community through trans-inclusive, celebratory events centred on art-making and storytelling. Through sharing, we continue to honour the stories of young queer folk as well as the older generation who paved the way.
