SUMMARY:LKDSB+
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by a curiosity to trace queer and trans histories\, presents\, and futures at the Lambton-Kent District School Board\, LKDSB+ is a representation of an ongoing project that documents the work being done in schools at the LKDSB to animate queer and trans moments and conversations. Throughout the 2022/23 school year\, schools were encouraged to collect items that reflected and recorded these conversations and submit them to their “pride mini-museum\,” a banker’s box given to each school. In June\, the boxes were delivered to the Equity\, Diversity\, Inclusion\, and Justice team\, who donated the material to The ArQuives Collection. The exhibit is a selection of work submitted by students. \nThe Chatham-Kent and Sarnia-Lambton region (southern Ontario) that LKDSB covers has little queer and trans history documented\, though much exists. Knowing where we come from can help us understand where we are and where we can go\, particularly for young people. LKDSB+\, and the stories it represents\, is a rural Ontario school board’s attempt to remember\, write\, and imagine queer and trans histories and futures. \nOpen times and dates: Fridays 4 pm – 8 pm\, Saturdays 11 am – 3 pm\, Sundays 11 am – 3 pm\, or by appointment – email curatorial@arquives.ca. Closed June 8\, June 9\, June 29 and June 30. \nInstallation facilitated by the Equity\, Diversity\, Inclusion and Justice Department of the Lambton-Kent District School Board\, with support from the Ontario Arts Council and the Government of Ontario. \n

SUMMARY:Leather Bound Stories in Archives
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion on the leather community and the archives that hold their history. Featuring three knowledgeable academics in the field\, Hannah Dickson\, Patrizia Gentile\, and Mel Leverich\, who explore the flexibility of what the material can mean in the context of a queer archive.\n\nThe event is free\, but registration is required. \nBIOS \n\nHannah Dickson (she/they) is a Queer woman\, curator\, and researcher living and working in tkaronto/toronto. She has a BA in Art History and Gender Studies from Carleton University and an MA in Contemporary Art\, Design\, and New Media Art Histories from OCAD University. During her time at OCAD\, her research focused on the queerness of contemporary burlesque and the concept of the feminist gaze. Since then\, her research has evolved to include high femme aesthetics\, femmes and kink\, and the pairing of contemporary art with archival material to bridge the gaps within archives. \nPatrizia Gentile is Professor in the Human Rights & Social Justice and the Feminist Institute of Social Transformation at Carleton University. Her monograph Queen of the Maple Leaf: Beauty Contests and Settle Femininity (UBC Press\, 2020) was nominated for the best book prize by the Canadian Historical Association in 2022. She is co-author with Gary Kinsman of the Canadian War on Queers: National Security as Sexual Regulation (UBC Press\, 2010) and has co-edited two anthologies on sexuality\, gender\, and embodiment. She is a cis-gendered/queer settler living on unceded Algonquin territories. \nMel Leverich (they/them) is the Archivist & Collections Librarian for the Leather Archives & Museum\, an international repository of kink\, leather\, and fetish community history that was founded in Chicago in 1991. Mel studied Classics and Cultural Studies at the Univeristy of Utah and has a Masters of Archival Studies from the University of British Columbia. \nIsabelle Cabrera Aragon (she/they) is a volunteer at The ArQuives in the curatorial committee. She has a BFA from the Art History and Studio Art program at Concordia University. Her focus has been in community projects and the role of institutions in supporting cultural heritage. \n\nImage credit: Rachel Britton
