Due to unforeseen circumstances, Calgary Queer Arts has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2026 REMIX Youth Program. We know this may be disappointing to those who were looking forward to participating, and we sincerely appreciate the interest and support we've received. Anyone who has registered will be contacted directly with more information. Thank you for your understanding and continued support of Calgary Queer Arts.
Location: The Calgary Rainbow Room, 750 11 St SW Ste 210, Calgary, AB T2P 3N7, Canada
Dates:
You will not finish a garment during this series
You will leave with the foundational tools to alter clothing and patterns independently
You will gain clarity, confidence, and language around fit
You will learn a repeatable process you can return to again and again
This is about skill-building, not speed.
Standard sizing assumes a default body.
This series starts from the reality that bodies are varied, changing, and deeply personal.
Here, fit is not about fixing yourself.
It is about learning how to make clothing work for you.
Location: Centre for Sexuality: 700 – 1509 Centre St S Calgary, Alberta

Testing for common sexually transmitted and blood borne infections (STBBIs), including chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, hepatitis A, B, & C, and HIV
Rapid or “point of care” testing for HIV and syphilis, providing results in about one minute, so you can know your status before you leave your appointment!

We offer two STI testing clinics: One one is open to anybody 14 or older of any gender identity or sexual orientation. The other is only open to gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM).
Appointments will become available exactly one week in advance from the appointment time. For example, the appointment for Wednesday at 4:00 pm next week, will become available to book at 4:00 pm on Wednesday of this week. If the system does not show any available appointments, it means that they are either all booked, or they are not yet available for booking. We encourage clients to routinely check this page for availability, including for last-minute appointments (we do get cancellations!).
When: Wednesday and Thursdays from 3:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Where: Centre for Sexuality: 700 – 1509 Centre Street South

🎟️ Registration: Sign ups are required and can be found here!
⚠️ Due to spots being limited, we expect them to fill up quickly, so don’t wait! There will be a wait list available! But this does not ensure a spot will be open.
Please note that The Sentry Box is made up of two separate business entities. To access the building, please enter through the west entrance into the Sentry Box, not The Sentry Box Cards. We’ll be on the upper mezzanine or back room depending on availability. Signs will be placed on the tables to help folks find us!
Please also be aware that the upstairs portion of this event is not wheelchair accessible due to the approximately 9 stairs into the building. But we usually have a table setup in the downstairs section for folks who struggle with stairs! Please feel free to send us an email at hello@queercalgary.ngo to let us know in advance.
And as always, before taking pictures please always ask for permission.
