SUMMARY:Drag: Beyond the Performance
DESCRIPTION:Kirk Centre is partnered with Robertson-Wesley United Church and the Human Library to host a series of events called Spill the T. This series will consist of several events about 2SLGBTQIA+ topics and will promote education and connection with the 2SLGBTQIA+ community in hopes of building more understanding and inclusive spaces around Edmonton. These events are free to attend and we have hired ASL interpreters to be at all of these events to ensure they are accessible and inclusive for everyone. Our first event is about the drag community and will take place on August 19th from 6pm to 8:30pm. We have an emcee and two presenters from the drag community who will spend the first part of the event introducing and discussing topics within the community. Then the event will shift towards the Human Library portion where the presenters and other representatives of the community will be at tables with topics that were brought up in the presentations. Then attendees will be able to visit these tables and get more direct insight and discussion with the presenters around these topics. Our two presenters are drag kings from the local drag community. Mister Risqué and Ryden on Wheelz both bring valuable experiences and perspectives to the discussion including accessibility in the drag scene and drag families.

SUMMARY:Peace Team Training
DESCRIPTION:More and more\, communities are facing hostility\, harassment\, and threats to their safety — and a lot of us want to show up for the people and places we love but aren’t sure how. The wanting is there. It’s the how that’s missing. \nThis training is the how. Over two evening sessions online and an optional full day in person in Calgary\, you’ll learn practical skills in nonviolent action\, de-escalation\, and community-led safety – taught by Nonviolent Peaceforce\, who have spent more than 20 years keeping people safe in some of the most dangerous places on earth\, from Ukraine to South Sudan. \nYou’ll leave with real skills\, the confidence to use them\, and everything you need to start a peace team of your own – through your church\, your organization\, or your community. \nWhether you’re showing up for queer and trans communities\, standing with immigrant and refugee neighbours\, organizing for a ceasefire\, or helping keep any gathering safe under pressure\, the tools are the same. If you’ve ever wanted to be a steadying presence when tensions rise\, this is where you learn how. \nHOW IT WORKS \nThe program runs in two parts. The two online sessions are required for everyone. The in-person day is optional — and because it builds directly on the online trainings\, completing both online sessions is required before attending in person. As such\, registration for all sessions closes Sept. 9th. The online session recording will be available to registrants for two weeks after the session to catch up before Oct. 3. \nYou’re welcome to take the online sessions only; many people will. \nFor the full schedule and to buy tickets\, go to: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/peace-team-training-registration-1991244502911
