Altar: Day Of The Dead Celebration

Date: Thursday October 31st, 2024

Time: 7:00 pm

Cost: Admission is by donation, courtesy of BMO Financial Group

In honour of the Day of the Dead, this evening is a summoning of queer love, ancestral memory, and transgenerational healing. Featuring artists from Mexico, Ximena Velázquez presents a haunting ritual of tortilla-making, followed by a performance from drag mutant Gaia Lacandona, and a sonic meditation by El Ángel Exterminador. The night blurs the line between worlds, celebrating both the living and the dead. Audience members are invited to bring photos, messages or names of ancestors and dearly departed to the altar. May queer ritual, sound, and spirit envelop you.

Doors at 6:30pm
