A Roundtable Talk on how health and wellness intersect with Kiki Ballroom!

Supporting mental health through community activism and care is an important part of the Kiki Ballroom scene. Mental health issues, addictions, and physical wellness are all compounded by intersections of race, sexuality and gender. Join Cookie 007, Mother Tamar Loubiton and Paris Loubiton to learn about how Kiki Ballroom serves as a mechanism for health.

An audience Q&A will be hosted after the discussion. If you have questions in advance for the panel, please submit to edib.sportandrec@utoronto.ca
