ASIAN QUEER ALLIANCE
Community events and programming by and for queer Asian folks of marginalized genders in Toronto
A QUEER ASIAN COMMUNITY
AQUA is a space created by and for queer Asians of marginalized genders in Tkaronto.
Queer being anyone who identifies as being anywhere along the 2SLGBTQQII+ spectrum Asian being anyone from Asia, including East, SouthEast, South, SouthWest, West, and North Asian; and marginalized genders including cis and trans women, non-binary folks, trans men and gender diverse people. Marginalized genders being people whose genders have been systematically oppressed by those in power throughout history and have been made to feel unsafe because of their gender.
We work with and for our community to create connections, foster friendships, provide social support, host events and workshops, and serve our community!
What's New
Pen Pal Project is Back!
Down for quick drop in with other AQUA players? Perhaps we can interest you in online Pictionary, storytelling jeopardy or maybe take a stab at an online escape room (we haven't decided yet, depends on turn out)! Maybe you just want to watch the gameplay unfold : )
This virtual event is open to anyone nationwide [Space is limited to 8 people!]
If you're free Weds November 27th from 7-8pm, we'll send you a google meeting invite and we'll let the games begin.
See you all soon!
(Please note that due to capacity we may move this event to December!)
