  • Coming Up!

    March 2026

    “History is Now” with Darrin Hagen – Monday, March 9 at 7 p.m.

    Join us at the Forum on the University of Alberta’s Augustana campus to listen to Darrin Hagen’s stories of his deep-dives into the research of the LGBTQ2S+ history of Edmonton, touching on details of the Pisces Bathhouse Raid, the Same-Sex Trials of 1942, the Delwin Vriend Supreme Court decision, and his own relationship with the Flashback archives. Not only do these stories shine a light on a community’s long march towards equality, but they act as a warning, showing how quickly human rights can be stripped away.

    See you there – no sign-up required! This event was made possible thanks to a generous grant from the Camrose Art Council & City of Camrose. Thank you for supporting us!
