SUMMARY:Calgary Pride x FORIEGNERZ - WORK 2023 Pride Gala
DESCRIPTION:We’re excited to announce WORK\, a Fashion Show & Runway installation by FOREIGNERZ\, exclusive to our 2023 Calgary Pride Sponsorship Gala taking place on August 17 at the Fairmont Palliser. \nWORK invites the viewer to consider the currency of our time and think deeply about what it actually means to work. What does it mean to survive in a post-pandemic era\, where the politics of aesthetics and desire drive us. In 2023 we are hustlers\, movers\, shakers\, and people who are asked to take on multiple identities to simply exist. With WORK\, FOREIGNERZ brings together the roots of Pride\, visibility\, survival\, power\, and the ability to create a new future through honest and jubilant relationships to our body\, with urgent questions about the politics of labor\, a culture of optimization\, and human value. \nWORK is the second Runway show from the house of FOREIGNERZ with Creative Direction from @jaesterling. WORK will be a multidisciplinary fashion installation that brings together emerging talent from Alberta in the fashion\, music\, and art space. \nAs this show is a part of our annual Sponsorship Gala\, this event will have a limited quantity of tickets available to the public. \nWe cannot wait to present FOREIGNERZ vision\, and we’ll remind you that for this event\, fits ARE required.

SUMMARY:Queer Cult Favorite Celebration - The Rocky Horror Picture Show
DESCRIPTION:Experience the iconic “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” like never before at the Calgary Central Library on August 27\, 2023! Step into a world where queerness\, liberation\, and self-expression reign supreme as we celebrate this beloved movie that holds a special place in the hearts of the queer community. \nJoin us for a night of joyous revelry as we pay tribute to the film’s profound impact on LGBTQ+ culture. The Rocky Horror Picture Show has been hailed as an empowering beacon for the queer community\, embracing non-conformity and inspiring individuals to embrace their authentic selves unapologetically. \nDelve into the extravagant world of Dr. Frank-N-Furter and the Time Warp with like-minded individuals who cherish this movie for its bold embrace of gender fluidity and acceptance. Through its celebration of diverse identities\, the breaking of societal norms\, and the exploration of sexual liberation\, this film has become a symbol of inclusivity and acceptance. \nAs we gather to watch this queer cult classic\, we celebrate its role in fostering a sense of belonging and kinship among queer individuals. Come and be a part of this powerful cinematic experience that has united the queer community for decades. \nDoors open at 6:00pm \, and the screening starts at 7:30. Admission is free\, but limited seating is available.

SUMMARY:Through the Multiverse: Queer Media Today - A lecture by Amy Villarejo
DESCRIPTION:While queer narratives and characters appear (ubiquitous) across media and platforms\, what kinds of stories claim our attention and interest? What priorities emerge as queer and trans lives are imperiled by assaults by the rabid right? This is less an attempt to survey the field than to take a few inspiring examples by queer and trans makers and submit them for our collective scrutiny and enjoyment.\nAmy Villarejo joined UCLA’s Department of Film\, Television\, and Digital Media in 2020. Her research focuses on queer cinema and media\, critical theory\, and television; most recently\, she has published the 3rd edition of Film Studies: The Basics (Routledge\, 2021) and the Oxford Handbook of Queer Cinema (with Ron Gregg\, Oxford UP\, 2021).
