This month is a craft catch-up, chat, and colour month! Do you have half-finished craft projects you've been meaning to finish? Here is your chance to get back to them! At the same time, enjoying connecting with other crafty queer people. We are also distributing an array of colouring books and, if needed, pencil crayons. Free kits are available in Victoria.

Queer Crafternoon is funded by a CRD Equity Grant. Thank you to the CRD Arts Commission for their generous support.

These events will be taking place on the traditional and unceded territories of the Lkwungen speaking peoples of the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations and the W̱SÁNEĆ peoples. We would like to acknowledge the rich and vibrant artistic practices of the Coast Salish Nations as well as those across Turtle Island that, along with their people, have faced persecution and attempted destruction by forces of colonization both past and present. Great honour and respect to the generations that have worked to keep these traditions alive, and to all those contributing to their revitalization today. Háy̓sxʷ q̓ə siám

Who we are: Queer Crafternoon is a free drop-in art space for queer, trans, and two-spirit folks of all ages along with their friends and family to craft, create, and connect! We are under the umbrella of Monoceros Education Society, and organized by a group of queer young adult volunteers living on unceded Lkwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ territory. Currently the 5 active facilitators are Ardeo, Celeste, River, Sara and Cedar.
