exChange - Intergenerational Dialogue & Arts Event

exChange Intergenerational Dialogue & Artmaking Event

Welcome to our sixth edition of our intergenerational art-making and dialogue event where generations come together to engage in meaningful conversations and creative artmaking!

Join us on Saturday June 13 2026 from 9:30AM-4:00PM at MEM - Centre des mémoires montréalaises for an exciting event where we celebrate and explore our diverse 2SLGBTQIA+ identities! Through daring dialogue and creative expression, we aim to foster intergenerational connections and promote understanding.

Through guided self-reflection and sharing by facilitators and teaching artists, participants will explore creative mixed-media, collage and zines on the theme:

"What do you wish to bring forward for queer future generations?”

---

Please note that this event is offered at no cost to participants,
but you must be registered to attend, and space is limited.

- more information will be shared via Instagram as we approach the event date.

We look forward to gathering with you!

Warmly, queerly, and gratefully,

The exChange team

About the exChange project

exChange is an Intergenerational 2SLGBTQIA+ daring dialogue arts project. Our aim is to bridge the gap between 2SLGBTQIA+ youth and the elders who paved the way. This intergenerational exchange through art hopes to create spaces where 2SLGBTQIA+ youth can learn the stories of how their freedoms have come to be, and where older folks from the 2SLGBTQIA+ can learn new terminology and gain a deeper understanding of the current evolution of the community. The goal of this initiative is twofold: to establish intergenerational reciprocal relationships through art making, and to document the storytelling of the English-speaking 2SLGBTQIA+ communities in Montreal / Tiohtià:ke, which are often stories unheard.
