Halifax Pride readies for 2013, prideHealth gets quizzical and Perfume Genius strolls like a lot lizard

Although Pride in Halifax was just a few months ago, the people who bring it to you are already working on getting organized for next year.

Halifax Pride’s annual general meeting will take place this Thursday, Oct 11, at the Halifax North Public Library, on Gottingen Street. The meeting begins at 6:30pm, with registration starting at 5:45pm. For more information, check out the Facebook event page.

PrideHealth is once again trying to find new ways to reach out to Halifax’s rainbow community. Tonight at Menz Bar, along with hostess Rouge Fatale, prideHealth is putting on a game-show-style quiz night. Apparently, this time they’re focusing on men’s health, with prizes, food and more. Contact Anita Keeping at 902-220-0643 or anita.keeping@cdha.nshealth.ca for more info.

On the Popping Culture tip, Perfume Genius, the pornstar-loving video maven, has released a new video. This one feels like an homage to lot lizards, the sex workers who work at truck stops. Check it out.

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
