Community Ties: Our Future Together
With support from Women and Gender Equality Canada, The ArQuives launched Community Ties: Our Future Together to help us assess our current capacity, identify opportunities for growth, and plan strategically for the future. This project is a part of our ongoing effort to grow The ArQuives’ national presence, and strengthen our ability to serve communities across Canada through expanded programming and services.
En 2024, avec le soutien de Femmes et Égalité des genres Canada, les ArQuives ont lancé le projet Liens Communautaires : Notre avenir ensemble pour nous aider à déterminer notre capacité d’action actuelle, identifier nos opportunités de croissance, et planifier stratégiquement pour le futur. Ce projet fait partie de notre effort permanent pour faire évoluer la présence nationale des ArQuives et renforcer notre aptitude à servir les communautés à travers le Canada par l’expansion de notre programmation et de nos services.
Pride and Remembrance Run: The Early Years
The Pride and Remembrance Run was founded in 1996 as an annual fundraising event dedicated to supporting the LGBTQ+ community, with a specific focus on the historical and ongoing impact of HIV/AIDS in the community. This exhibition contains archival photographs, videos, textual records, news articles, t-shirts, posters, and oral histories documenting the history of the Pride and Remembrance Run.
Genderqueer in Canada
While "genderqueer" may be a relatively new term under the queer umbrella, the sense of out-of-placeness within and without the gender binary has a longer history. To be genderqueer means that one does not comfortably fit within the binary of female or male, woman or man. A genderqueer person may exist somewhere between, or outside of it entirely as a third gender. There are many ways to inhabit this gender identity and there is no one label that suits all people and this exhibit explores that reality.
