Kits for Queer Kith
Join us at GlitterBean Cafe on Friday, May 9th, from 6-8 PM for collective grieving and rituals in community care for our 2SLGBTQIAP+ Disabled kin. Disabled 2SLGBTQIAP+ folks ages 18-30 are welcomed to the space to build a grief kit using provided materials. There will be a facilitated discussion on grief and disability. Participants are welcome to share moments of joy and sorrow, as well as donate a cherished object to the memory bouquet. Objects will be added to the vase and donated to a queer space. Please keep mementos limited to small objects that can be attached to skewers. We will accept up to 2 items per participant.
Pre-registration is required and available via https://shorturl.at/grVf9. Registration is limited, so we suggest registering sooner rather than later.
Masks are required to attend (& can be provided :3).
An active listener and self-care resources will be available.
ASL interpretation will also be provided. :3
The venue has a ramp that is functioning. More detailed accessibility notes about the venue will be coming soon.
This program is a closed space for 2SLGBTQIAP+ Youth Ages 18-30. Self-IDing is more than enough to access this space/ you don’t need a formal diagnosis.
QueerCreativesSpace/ @queercreativesspace will also be partnering with the YouthProject/ @nsyouthproject to make this event possible.
This program is the fourth public program of YouthProject’s Accessibility Futurisms project funded by Accessibility Standards Canada.
If you have any questions about the space or event, you can contact Robin at robin@youthproject.ns.ca✨
Location: GlitterBean Cafe, 5896 Spring Garden Road, Kjipuktuk/ Halifax

Casey & Diana (A handshake that changed the world)
In 1991, at the height of the AIDS crisis, the residents of Casey House - Toronto's first free-standing AIDS Hospice - receive word that the Princess of Wales is coming to visit. This potent and moving drama by Nick Green, vividly captures a moment in time when a rebel Princess, alongside fearless caregivers and advocates, reshaped the course of a pandemic—and how those stricken by the virus found hard-won dignity, community and love in the face of astonishing hardship.
Tickets: Start at $33 up to $65 (+ fees and taxes), for sale online.
