The book launch accompanies an exhibition of the same name in the Zig Zag Gallery of EUC, celebrating a reorganized selection of photographs and stories from queerburban research participants on the peripheries of Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver. The artist-curator-scholar Chan Arun-Pina has curated this exhibition, creating original artwork that reinterprets the photographs and collective counter-maps, inviting your engagement and reimagination of queerburbia. This exhibition runs until the end of October.
