Velour, velvet, glitter, and gems! It’s called GLAMOUR baby! Canvas Programs, a thriving charity in Ontario that provides empathy-based education on consent and 2SLGBTQ+ inclusion, is getting ready to host an exciting fundraising event in Toronto on Thursday, September 26. The evening will toast a decade of 2SLGBTQ+ inclusion and consent education.

Over the past decade, Canvas has built a team of artists and educators that run workshops for over 10,000 youth, teachers, and caregivers each year. Their programs create spaces where all people are free to live authentically and have the tools to create safe and caring relationships. The organization is moving the needle towards a society free from homophobia, transphobia, and gender-based and sexual violence. 

With changing times, this charity has seen the growing need for inclusion education. With your support, the org looks forward to continuing to expand Canvas’ education to reach across Southern Ontario and beyond.

On Thursday, September 26 wear an outfit that makes you shine and join in for a night of poetry, music, and drag at the Centre for Social Innovation – Annex.  Canvas is celebrating a decade of life changing education with a cabaret-style fundraiser, sponsored by Irving Family Foundation, filled with performances and great company. Don’t miss out on this unforgettable evening to benefit 2SLGBTQ+ inclusion and consent education! 

The evening will include:

  • Emerging and award-winning spoken word artists, musicians and drag performers. (Featuring performances from west-end drag collective Kunst Kids and more!) 
  • An art auction featuring artwork from local artists 
  • A photobooth to make these memories last forever 
  • A cash bar with alcoholic and non-alcoholic options for everyone
