Building Calgary Communities

Our Past Matters: Stories of Gay Calgary

Join Kevin Allen, author of Our Past Matters Stories of Gay Calgary, for an exploration of the city's little known LGBTQ2 History. Learn about Everett Klippert, the Calgary Bus Driver whose Supreme Court case led to the partial decriminalization of homosexuality in 1969. Hear about community organizers who founded the city's first gay clubs and safe spaces, including the legendary Club Carousel. Kevin will share gay tales ranging from the signing of Treaty 7 to debates within the queer community today.
