QHC Celebratory Pride Picnic in the Park

We’re celebrating one whole year of the Queer Healing Collective—and more importantly, you. There’s so much to celebrate in life! Join us this Pride Month for a joyful outdoor potluck picnic.

This gathering is a love letter to all the unrecognized triumphs—the quiet, radical, playful, powerful moments that shaped us this year: healing heartbreak, choosing rest, coming out (again), surviving something you weren’t sure you’d make it through.

We’re creating a space to celebrate on your own terms—no stage, no spotlight—just honest, joyful witnessing in queer community. Through small group reflection, symbolic sharing, and creative play, we’ll honour one another and the paths we’re walking.

This past year, QHC officially celebrated its first year of building community. We’ve provided 8 in-person workshops, collaborated with 12 community partners, and served over 155 queer people. We would love to see you again! So come hang out and bring a queer friend!

What to bring? Blankets, snacks, water, sunscreen, games—and an object that represents your worthy (or underrated) celebratory win. Be creative! A poem, photo, or something from childhood are all welcome.

If it rains, we’ve got an indoor backup space in Regent Park!
