Mission

image+nation culture queer / not-for-profit // mandate : to encourage and nurture LGBTQ+ culture and storytelling. Through evolving projects, image+nation culture queer explores the diversity of LGBTQ+ life and living through Queer Storytelling. Help us continue supporting and championing these stories. We can create a future for LGBTQ+ creators and audiences by making LGBTQ+ stories and storytelling accessible and shareable for all.

We would like to acknowledge that the land on which we physically gather and virtually stream to vou is located on unceded Indigenous lands. The Kanien:keha'ka Nation is recognized as the custodians of the lands and waters upon which image+nation takes place. Tiohtià:ke/ Montreal is historically known as a gathering place for many First Nations. Today, it is home to a diverse population of Indigenous and other peoples. We recognize the rich Indigenous heritage of this place, a place that is a source of pride and inspiration for the entire Montreal community.
