Are you a cisgender person who wants to be a more active ally to Two Spirit, trans, non-binary and gender nonconforming (2STNBGN) people? Are you interested in exploring the limits of your embodied gender using a non-cisnormative framework? This workshop is about doing and taking seriously the unseen, theoretical labour 2STNBGN people often do in order to understand themselves. Participants will come away with a deeper understanding of western gender systems and how they fit into them, or not.

The workshop will be limited to 8 to 10 people. Click here to sign up online.

With meal break @ Craft Services or bring your own lunch.


I don’t want to see or be seen by cis people is comprised of two parts, a performance/t4t party facilitated by artist Jaye Kovach that is only open to the Two Spirit, trans, non-binary and gender nonconforming (2STNBGN) community, and a workshop for cisgender people about exploring the limits of their embodied gender. The workshop will be facilitated by selfdescribed academic/artist weirdo, Cat Haines.

Notes: This is part one of Jaye Kovach’s performance, I don’t want to see or be seen by cis people. See event #5 for part two.
