2023 Festival Calendar

Launched in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of The ArQuives—Canada’s only LGBTQ2+ archives with a national scope—Toronto Pride’s first exhibition and publication feature enlarged archival photographs, print media, and ephemera carefully selected from among the archives’ holdings and a public call for submissions. Kicking off Pride Season, this remarkable multifaceted project focuses on Toronto Pride from 1970 to the present day.

Serapis is an Athens-based multidisciplinary collective that takes their inspiration from water—oceans and seas, their slipperiness, and their interaction with human-made infrastructures. The collective describes their practice as a “multimedia ocean-themed novel.” Their interest in expanding and exceeding boundaries constitutes an interdisciplinary output across art, design, and fashion, and their fascination with water acts as an extension of this liquidity; their watery subject matter spills across media.
