Queerspora: Preparing for Winter
November 20 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Queerspora is MAX Ottawa’s monthly social program for queer newcomers.
Preparing for winter in Canada can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re experiencing the season for the first time.
For this month’s Queerspora, we’re discussing tips to help you prepare for Canadian winter. Together, we’ll explore practical winter essentials like:
- Dressing for the cold weather
- Staying safe on icy sidewalks
- Navigating public transport during inclement weather
- Accessing community resources for affordable food, clothing, and other essential supports
Join us to get winter-ready and build connections. RSVP through the form below to reserve your spot.
