Event Description 

Let’s play “The Quiet Year” and build a community together with Mycelium! The Quiet Year is a map game created by queer local BC game designer Avery Alder living on the unceded Sinixt and Ktunaxa territories. Together, we will define the struggles of a community living after the collapse of civilization, and attempt to build something good within our quiet year. Every decision and every action is set against a backdrop of dwindling time and rising concern.

The Quiet Year occupies an interesting space – part roleplaying game, part cartographic poetry. 

Mycelium Description 

Mycelium is space for queer & trans youth 16-29 across what is currently known as BC, where we gather to center healing, pleasure, and justice in our lives as we envision and create a world liberated from HIV & Hep C stigma. 

We are committed to reducing stigma related to HIV & Hep C and to building communities where we feel safe talking about the highs and lows of sex, drugs, relationships and all the things that bring us pleasure. 

Land Acknowledgement 

Mycelium events take place on traditional, unceded territories of various First Nations in what is now colonially referred to as ‘British Columbia’. We hold this fact in our hearts and actions throughout our work at Mycelium. Our team is committed to an ongoing process of learning what it means to do work on this land in a way that brings us closer to Indigenous Sovereignty.  

Mycelium offers online and in person programs organized by coordinators based on the traditional, unceded territories of the
