This is happening: Queer events in Halifax

It’s a busy week in Halifax.

It’s dreary in Hali during the winter, so why not check out Queer Acts at The Company House? The theme of the night: Drag Gone Wrong.

Featuring Micheal Best, Kevin Kindred and Jeremy Doucette among others, you can find out more about the event here.

Wanna get dirty and sudsy all at once but don’t always feel like you can? A collective
is forming to organize bathhouse nights in Halifax for women, trans,
gender-queer and other folks who can’t regularly access them. The meeting will take place at The Company House this Wednesday, Jan 25, at 4pm. For more info, email halifax.bathhouse@gmail.com.

Guerrilla Gayfare is throwing one of their monthly parties and recently created a snazzy new poster.

You can find out more about their upcoming shindig here.

Also, today would be Klaus Nomi’s 68th birthday. I’ve written about Klaus before in this column but feel that there’s nothing wrong with a little extra Klaus in our lives.

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
