Join us at the Charlottetown 2SLGBTQ+ Adult Drop-In on Wednesday, November 19, 2025 at the PEERS Alliance Office (250 B Queen Street) from 6-8pm. As part of Transgender Awareness Week, this drop-in is brought to you by a collaboration between Native Council of PEI’s Tapui’tjitja’amitj (2-Spirit) Program, PEI Transgender Network, and PEERS Alliance.

Decolonizing Gender: A Two-Spirit & Drag Workshop invites community members to explore the intersections of identity, artistry, and self-expression through the lens of drag. This interactive event creates space for Two-Spirit and allied drag artists to share their personal journeys, discuss the cultural roots of gender expression, and showcase their craft through performances, tutorials, and one-on-one conversations. The workshop offers an open and affirming environment for learning, connection, and celebration of gender diversity in all its forms.
