=Place Names Discussion= Defining Moments Canada (DMC) has a project called Proud to Be: Queer Canadian Histories of the 1960s-1970s. They are creating a map of queer spaces across Canada for young people - junior and senior high school I think. Topic: Places, spaces, that were important to the Q community in the 1960s and 1970s. I anticipate inviting about 15 people. We will make it clear that we have limited room and will be Invitation list goals: representation from: * Old folk who were there * Diversity: Men, women, drag queens, PoC * Academics * Invitation list is below ===Invitation=== Former owner of Mana Cuisine in Los Angeles. Worked for 10 years in LA and for a number of different kitchens including Grub (Betty Frasier and Ilan Hall - now at Ramen Hood, were both on Top Chef) as chef de partie (various); Bread and Butter Catering (Michael Brooks has been catering for the American Film Institute, the Hollywood Foreign Press and celebrity clients for over 40 years) as chef de partie (various); Bites Catering (Elizabeth Goal has catered private celebrity events for over 20 years) as line cook; Joe Bastianich, as line cook/garde manger for American Idol; Boston Group LA (now Wolfgang Puck) as line cook, grill and garde manger for large events. I am self-taught. ===Food=== I think it would be really good to have finger food in a buffet style, stuff that people could just load onto and refill salad plates or even small things that they could eat with a fork like quiche. I think the criteria should be: * easy for you * not too expensive - say…. ten bucks a person? 15? * more savoury than sweet, considering old people’s diabetes, and filling, as if we’re giving them a deccent meal * and, I think the challenge: a nonalcoholic drink to pair with it. Maybe Costa Rica pear juice which I have a lot of. The food is our bait, our reward for participating, so if you’re cooking, I will need a sentence or two about your experience. =Budget= ||Space- UU Church || 150|| ||Food || 300|| ||Moderator || 50|| ||Writing, Dan + Nathan || 100|| ||Total || '''$600'''|| ===A/V=== * I’d like to have a couple maps up — one of Nova Scotia and one of Halifax * and put Post-Its on the map as people talk about things. * Maybe people vote by the number of Post-Its. * Have Post-its pre-prepared with all the places we know about ===Agenda=== ; 1:00 or so : Nathan & Dan show up and set up the space ; 1:30 : moderator arrives ; 1:45 : People start trickling in ; 2:10 : Moderator or I call people to order and explains what’s going on for the day ; 2:15 : Round of introductions ; 2:35 : Blue sky listing of places. ; 3:00 : Bio break ; 3:15 : Discussion of each place and voting. ; 3:45 : wrap up and social time. ===Invitees=== * [ ] Elderberries * [ ] ACQH members * [ ] Ginger * [x] Robin * [x] Rebecca * [ ] Turrent Society people * [ ] Turret Memories people * [ ] Walter-jij * [x] Nathan's friends Bruce and Deryk ===RSVPs=== # RSVP's get put here with numbers.
