To be read to the tune of Proud Mary, (Tina Turner version):<\/em><\/p>\n

[murmur]<\/a> is pleased to announce the launch of our latest Toronto expansion into the Church-Wellesley neighbourhood as part of this year’s Pride festival. Six new locations have been installed in and around the Gaybourhood, and include stories about: the Cawthra Park AIDS memorial<\/a>; being gay & Muslim on September 11th; the bathhouse raids; guerrilla gardening by the Alexander Wood statue; 1990s queer activism; and what it’s like to grow up in the village and have drag queens put together your prom outfit<\/a>. The six locations are:<\/p>\n

1> <\/strong>Northwest corner Church and Wellesley<\/a> (in front of Ho’s Place barbershop).<\/p>\n

2><\/strong> 538 Church Street<\/a> by Cafe California & Zelda’s<\/p>\n

3> <\/strong>500 Church Street<\/a> by Alexander Wood Statue<\/p>\n

4><\/strong> 519 Church Street<\/a> (by Cawthra Park\/519 Community Centre)<\/p>\n

5><\/strong> George Hislop Park<\/a> (between Isabella and St. Charles St.)<\/p>\n

6><\/strong> Southeast corner of Yonge and Wellesley<\/a>.<\/p>\n

More locations and stories will be added this summer, stay tuned.<\/p>\n

This iteration of [murmur] is sponsored by Pride Toronto<\/a> and the Lesbian and Gay Community Appeal Foundation<\/a> and is part of the Plot, Engage, Disperse<\/a> program curated by Daryl Vocat. The project is a unique partnership for us as it was first initiated (and ultimately executed) by Chris Bentley, a researcher from York University looking into queer oral histories in the neighbourhood who thought it might be a good idea to do his recordings in the [murmur] format and make those stories accessible on the street, where the events occurred.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
