SUMMARY:Ask a Trans Person
DESCRIPTION:Join two of Canada’s leading trans activists for a no-questions-off-limits Q&A on all trans topics. \nYou probably have a lot of unanswered questions about trans people and issues.. Maybe you’re worried about what’s being taught in the classroom\, or about what healthcare services are being offered to trans youth. You’ve heard terms like “parental rights” thrown around. You haven’t felt able to ask your questions and get answers that make sense to you. \nWe get it\, we understand. But what’s the other side of the story? \nThrough conversation we can find common ground – we have more in common than we think. Let’s remove the politics and hot takes and connect as people. \nWe want to hear your worries and share our side of the story. That’s why Fae Johnstone and Victoria Bucholtz\, two of Canada’s most prominent trans activists\, are coming to town to answer all your gender questions. \nThis is your chance to get your questions answered – yes\, even the tough ones. No judgement\, no name calling. Instead\, we’ll give you our honest takes — and we think they’ll win you over. \nJoin us for an event filled with candid conversation. Hear from Victoria and Fae as they make the case for trans rights\, and then dive into an interactive Question and Answer period where nothing* is off limits. \nReserve your spot today! \n*Okay\, there are exceptions – threats and personal attacks aren’t welcome. \nThis event is brought to you by Queer Momentum\, TransAction Alberta\, Fierte Canada Pride\, and Valley Pride.

SUMMARY:Boys\, Girls & Other Mythological Creatures
DESCRIPTION:This is a community event put on by a partner organization but supported by Valley Pride. \nShows on June 6\, 13\, 20 @ 11am and 2pm \nDeep in Simon’s basement\, there is a secret world of imagination and adventure.
