A QUEER ASIAN COMMUNITY
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!

Tree of Life Mental Health Workshop
Tree of Life Mental Health Workshop
Whether you grew in rich, fertile soil or had to cut away rotting roots to survive, this evening is a space to acknowledge your growth, resilience, and the ways we lean on one another in the forest of community.
This mental health workshop will combine storytelling and art-making for those looking to reconnect with their roots, honour their growth, and imagine what’s next. Led by queer and Asian therapists Linda Thai and Sharon Bae with supervision from founder of Your Story Counselling, Judy Lui, this workshop is all about tending to the stories that have shaped us—and the communities that hold us.
