Pervers/cité

The final event of Pervers/cité: The Parade Intervention
12:30pm – In front of the Canadian Center for Architecture at 1920 rue Baile between Fort and Saint-Marc.

The 2011 Montreal Pride parade is proudly brought to you by … Viagra. No kidding. Welcome to the community parade that requires that you sign up months ahead of time to participate and dedicates more space to floats advertising banks, pharmaceuticals and condom companies than to members of the community. This is not the image we want to present to poor ‘normal’ ‘straight’ folks about what it means to be queer. Unfortunately we’ve been too frazzled so far trying to get this festival and program together to come up with a good way to tell them what IS important to us, but get in touch with us if you’ve got any brilliant ideas. perverscite@gmail.com

The book fair is happening today from 12-6pm at Centre St-Pierre 1212 Panet. There will be free food!

Today is also the second day of workshops. (Also at 1212 Panet) Take a look at the schedule. All of the workshops are free.

Tonight is the party of the summer. Come dance with the person you’ve been eyeing all week at A Night at the Races: An Equeerie Fundraiser.
Espace des arts 9 Ste-Catherine E. 10pm to 5am $6 before 3am $12 after
