- **Event Name**: Social Hangout #43: building inclusive spaces
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 20 Aug, 2026 at 06:30 pm – Thu, 20 Aug, 2026 at 08:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Au-delà des énoncés de mission, des codes de conduite et des actions organisationnelles prises, il y a la réalité de notre espace communautaire et de nos danses sociales : comment faire pour être un lieu réellement inclusif ? Qu'est-ce que cela signifie, et comment chaque personne peut contribuer à faire de Cat's Corner un espace inclusif ? Comment le collectif peut-il s'engager à être davantage intègre et équitable, où chacun à sa place ? Qui voit-on et entend-on, mais surtout qui reste invisible, marginalisé, voire exclu ? 

Une conversation (difficile) animée par Hélène, avec plusieurs membres de la communauté impliqué. Toute personne proche ou moins familière avec Cat's Corner mais intéressée par les enjeux d'inclusivité sur la piste de danse est la bienvenue.

À propos des Social Hangout : quelques jeudis de l'été, nous vous proposons de partager un moment chaleureux pour échanger sur les aspects culturels des danses afro-descendantes en compagnie de personnes invitées et membres de la communauté. Nous ouvrons cet espace pour partager nos connaissances sur la culture du jazz, renforcer la compréhension de nos danses, socialiser entre pairs et développer un meilleur sentiment d'appartenance à la Communauté Cat's Corner. Visionnage de clips et de films, conversations ouvertes, potluck et friperie, pratiques ouvertes et jams de danse : l'été sera doux chez Cat's Corner.

Beyond mission statements, codes of conduct, and organizational actions, there is the reality of our community space and our social dances: how can we make this a truly inclusive place? What does that mean, and how can each person contribute to making Cat’s Corner better? How can the collective commit to being more fair and equitable, where everyone has a place as an individual? Who do we see and hear, but more importantly, who remains invisible, marginalized, or even excluded? 

A (difficult) conversation moderated by Hélène, with several involved community members. Anyone familiar with Cat’s Corner—or even those less so—who is interested in issues of inclusivity on the dance floor is welcome.

About Social Hangouts: one Thursday every now and then, we invite you to share a warm moment of exchange on the cultural aspects of Afro-descendant dances with guests and members of the community. We open this space to share our knowledge of jazz culture, strengthen understanding of our dances, socialize with peers and develop a greater sense of belonging to the Cat's Corner Community. Video and film screenings, open conversations, potluck and clothes swap, open practices and dance jams: it's going to be a sweet summer at Cat's Corner.
