Friday
18:00-19:30

Some points in life are particularly prone to loneliness. And generations of queers may feel loneliness differently and find different ways of coping or overcoming it. Yet, many of us share a lonely period in our lives of disidentifying and hiding as queers. And as life goes on, there are other points where loneliness can hit us hard. This workshop is an invitation for queers of different generations to look at loneliness at different points in our lives and what has helped us to cope or overcome it. We will use intergenerational exchange, aided by bodily exercises, to activate queer resources to address loneliness.
