Queer X Folk: 2SLGBTQIA+ Songwriters in the Round brings together extraordinary LGBTQIA2+ singer-songwriters for an intimate evening of original music, storytelling, and connection.

Featuring acclaimed artists Jack Pine (Ottawa), Noah Malcolm (PEI), Izzy Silver (PEI), and Mattie Comeau (Mi'kmaw, New Brunswick), this one-of-a-kind performance celebrates queer voices, identity, and the transformative power of music. Blending folk, pop, Indigenous storytelling, and deeply personal songwriting, each performer offers a unique perspective while inviting audiences into a shared space of honesty, laughter, and belonging.

With a career spanning nearly two decades and decorated with several awards, nominations and music certifications to her name, multi-platinum recording artist Fefe Dobson is a true renaissance woman within the entertainment industry. Emerging as a pop / rock artist in the early 2000’s, Fefe stood out among her contemporaries as an edgy black female outlier in an otherwise male dominated genre.

Her Platinum Certified (Gold in America) eponymous debut album (2003) was released to critical acclaim, earning the 18 year old new girl on the music scene 4 consecutive top 10 radio singles including 'Bye Bye Boyfriend,' 'Take Me Away' and 'Don't Go (Girls & Boys)'. The single ‘Everything’ was a fan favorite that was featured on the soundtrack for Paramount Pictures hit teen comedy ‘The Perfect Score’ (2004). The album received multiple award nominations including 2 JUNO Award nominations and catapulted the young pop / rock artist into international stardom as the album officially debuted at #1 on the BillboardHeatSeekers album charts and landed her an opening slot of Justin Timberlake’s 2004 Justified Tour across Europe. Upon returning to North America, Fefe dove into the acting world, appearing as one of her biggest influences, the iconic Tina Turner on the hit NBC series American Dreams.

This is a standing show. Limited accessible tickets available.

Walk For Me: An Introduction to Ballroom Culture and Vogue is a participatory workshop exploring the history, language, and movement traditions of ballroom culture. Rooted in Black and Latine queer and trans communities, ballroom is a living world with its own aesthetics, kinship structures, and forms of care. This workshop introduces participants to that world: where it came from, how it works, and what it has to teach us about community, belonging, and survival.

No dance experience is required. Participants will learn foundational vogue movement, explore ballroom terminology and categories, and leave with a grounded understanding of the culture and its ongoing significance. This workshop is best understood as an invitation to show up, pay attention, and move your body.

Please note: this workshop engages with ballroom culture in its full context, which includes coarse language.

Open to ages 16 and up. Space is limited to 20 participants.

Paying homage to the 10-year legacy of OUTspoken while creating a fresh start, Poetry OUTloud is a night of spoken word and poetry readings by queer poets on Epekwitk. This evening of poetry centres and celebrates queer voices in a powerful, non-competitive environment. 

Five things you need to know about the event:

• The theme for Poetry OUTloud '26 is Renaissance: Rebirth~Revive~Renew  

• Produced and hosted by Queer Poetry Club, Poetry OUTloud is an all-ages event that amplifies local queer poetry and poets. The event is an extension of Queer Poetry Club's purpose: to cultivate a queer, neurodiversity-affirming, and supportive space for 2SLGBTQIA+ poets on Epekwitk to gather, write, share, and experience poetry. 

• Poetry OUTloud invites people of all ages and backgrounds to be audience members. Please note that themes of sexuality, gender exploration, and other related topics may be present in the performances.

• Queer Poetry Club has partnered with Queer Choir in a collaborative songwriting initiative. Together, with more than 20 queer poets and singers, they have co-written a song called I am Every Possibility. The world premiere of this song will also take place during Poetry OUTloud.

Join us for an interactive, community-based financial wellness workshop with The Common Cents Club! Designed to make money conversations more accessible, practical, and a little less intimidating.

Hosted by Wilma Checklear, this session will move through three facilitated learning stations:

• Money saving tips & tricks

• Credit cards & credit scores

• Savings: where to start

We’ll begin with a 10-minute group welcome and overview before participants rotate through each station, spending approximately 20 minutes at each. Facilitators will guide conversation, share tools and insights, and invite participants to contribute their own experiences and strategies. Key ideas will be captured and shared throughout.

At the end of the session, facilitators will share highlights from each station so everyone leaves with a full picture of the discussion. Participants will also receive a takeaway worksheet to reflect on key learnings and identify three action items, with completed sheets entered into a draw for a gas card or grocery gift certificate.

Whether you're building your financial foundation or looking to swap practical tips with others, this session is designed to meet you where you're at.

Set in 1880s Prince Edward Island, this murder mystery will have participants witness a tense reunion between a group of friends that share a deep and dark secret.

Get ready for twists you’ll never see coming and a full immersive and interactive experience. Be careful who you trust; not everything is as it seems.

A supportive, hands-on lab for people who have a website but feel disconnected from it or nervous to touch it. Many people have a site that no longer reflects who they are or what they offer, especially if they built it themselves and got stuck, or had someone else build it and were never shown how to use it. If you've been avoiding touching your website, or just prefer having someone knowledgeable in the room as you do so, this is for you!

In this session, we’ll work on your website together in real time so you can make meaningful updates with guidance and support. You’ll leave with a site that feels more like you and something you feel confident and proud to share.
