Trans Realities Workshop: 101
Tuesday July 29th
6 to 8 PM
West Island LGBTQ2+ Centre
You’re invited to a Trans 101 workshop for questioning folks and loved ones of trans people!
Dinner will be provided!
This workshop has limited capacity, so we will use a first come, first served basis.
Are you someone that is questioning their gender but that doesn’t know a lot about transness? Did someone in your life come out as trans and you wanna learn more about transness? Do you have questions about it that you feel uncomfortable asking a trans person? Do you want to learn more about how to be respectful towards trans people?
Trans 101 is the workshop for you! In this workshop you will learn the basics about transness (e.g. terms definitions, trans realities, how to be respectful etc.) and you will be able to ask questions to get more informed!
Two Lines, One Story: Tracing HIV Through ACCM’s Archive

AIDS Community Care Montreal (ACCM) is proud to present ”Two Lines, One Story” a summer archival exhibit tracing the legacy of HIV care, activism, and community in Montreal, told through the unique lens of ACCM’s history. Since 1987, ACCM has been a vital resource for people living with HIV in Montreal’s English-speaking and 2SLGBTQI+ communities. For the first time, we are opening our archives to the public—decades of posters, photos, documents, and memories will be presented alongside a second timeline of major milestones in Montreal’s HIV movement.
This exhibit invites visitors into a space of learning, remembrance, and reflection on over 38 years of care and resilience.
Vernissage – August 5th, 5 to 7 PM.
