In a time of rising hate and discrimination towards the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, it can feel overwhelming to know where to start. Pride was born in resistance, and that tradition continues through the incredible activists, organizers, and political representatives working every day to protect Queer and Trans rights. Join MLA Lisa Lachance for a panel and open conversation about building community, taking political action, and shaping a Nova Scotia where everyone belongs. Snacks and drinks will be provided in person. If you have any questions you can contact us at [email protected]
Come get creative with us! We'll supply the fans and all the fun things to put on them. Options to paint, get glittery and customize however your creative flare desires. Your ticket includes one signature cocktail (or mocktail), a fan, and supplies to decorate!

Nova Scotia Legal Aid (NSLA) is proud to announce a very special event, Stories and Sparkle: An Indigenous and Pride Crafting Circle. Building on NSLA’s annual tradition of creating signs in advance of the Pride Parade, this event will combine hands-on crafting with engaging Indigenous storytelling. Participants will have the opportunity to design Pride posters and parade signs, as well as decorate sunglasses to wear during the parade. Throughout the evening, attendees will hear from Mi’kmaq and Two-Spirit guest speakers who will share stories and knowledge on topics such as Mi’kmaq regalia, Two-Spirit identities, and Indigenous history and culture. These presentations will provide meaningful opportunities for education, dialogue, and reflection while celebrating the diversity and resilience of Indigenous-Queer communities. This workshop is all ages and FREE! In lieu of an admission fee, please bring non-perishable food items for the Mi'kmaq Native Friendship Centre Food Bank.
