This event has passed.

The Halifax Women's Housing Co-op invites you to dance with us.

                 Friday, Jan 20, 2017 from 9 pm to 1 am 

8 - 9 Gathering of Founding, Previous and Current Co-op Members

               at the Company House (2202 Gottingen St). 

 

In 1981, a group of lesbians who dreamed of a different way of living founded the Halifax Women's Housing Co-op. 35 years later, the co-op is still providing an affordable and supportive housing community for women in Halifax. Ten women run the co-op as a feminist collective, maintaining the buildings, recruiting new members and managing the finances. In the face of Provincial cuts to the co-op's subsidy program, the co-op is holding a fundraising dance. 

 

Women, lesbians, trans and non binary folks, and supportive men are invited to attend. Guests of honour will include the co-op's founding members. 

 

Tickets are $10 - $20 or pay what you can. Tickets will be available in advance at the Company House or at the door. Even if you can't make it to the dance, consider purchasing a ticket to support the co-op. 

 

The Company House is wheel chair accessible. 

 

Come dance with us on Jan 20. Hope to see you there. 

 

We hope people of all genders, abilities, ages, cultures and sexualities will feel welcome at the dance. As such, any form of discrimination will not be tolerated.
