Do you want to learn more about the first 2slgbtq+ museum space that we are building?

Do you have a story or an artifact you'd like to share?

Don't miss this unique opportunity to be a part of curating Canada's first 2SLGBTQ+ museum!

On Wednesday March 11th, the Canadian Centre for Gender and Sexual Diversity is hosting a community consultation for its new 2SLGBTQ+ museum space!

The museum, projected to open in Ottawa in 2024, will be a space where we can expand on the conversation, create a cultural exchange, and showcase our communities' stories - past, present, and future. We want a museum and education space in which the stories we showcase have room to exist and room to grow.

The space will offer visitors an opportunity to explore Canada's queer past while engaging with contemporary issues surrounding the 2SLGBTQ+ community today.

You can read more about the museum space by visiting our website: http://ccgsd-ccdgs.org/newspace/

CCGSD is hosting up to 42 community consultations across the country to collect feedback, artifacts, and stories that offer valuable insight into the queer community life and history in Canada. This feedback will be reviewed by our Advisory Committee and will help researchers create proposed topics and storylines for the space that will later inform the development of the museum.

The consultation includes a presentation of the proposed museum space and content, and a period for questions and feedback from community members.

Yummy snacks and refreshments will be provided!

We are looking forward to hearing your voice!

For any questions, please email the event coordinator, Andrea Prajerova, at teachers@ccgsd-ccdgs.org.
