Who is this event for?
This event is for 2SLGBTQIA+ people and allies ages 19 and under. This includes kids/youth/teens who are gender diverse and exploring their gender. We welcome everyone to come alone and/pr bring friends (allies included).
Children under 10 are welcome to come with a caregiver.
What to expect:
Focusing on self-expression, each participant will decorate their own scarf, buff or cape to take home. This will be a casual event with time to do art, chat, and socialize.
Tangle, from Entangled Puppetry, will be supporting this event.
We would love to see your pieces at the Solidarity Walk on Sunday, September 15th.
What to wear: This event will involve markers and paint, so wear something you are comfortable getting some extra colours on.
What to bring: Bring your own water bottle and wear clothes that you can craft in.
Food/Drinks: Pizza will be provided at the event, thanks to Red Rock Pizza! There will be vegetarian, gluten free, and dairy free options.
