Join us for an hour of art, story, and conversation with two artists from opposite coasts who carry the stories of their homelands in their visual and written work.

Join authors Aaron Chan, Tash McAdam and Candie Tanaka as they discuss why they write emotionally engaging characters that are outside the traditional queer canon.

The world’s a bit of a mess right now, but for one afternoon, let’s trade in our existential dread for some deep belly laughs. Join comedic powerhouses Sasha Mark, Savannah Erasmus, and Myriam LaCroix as they serve up wit, whimsy, and just the right amount of chaos. Hosted by Word Vancouver’s resident giggle wranglers: Kayla MacInnis and Candie Tanaka.
