🍄 Queer Artivism Circle Applications are Open! 🍄

Mycelium is excited to introduce Queer Activism Circle (QAC)! QAC is a 6-week cohort where queer and trans youth (16-29) across B.C. come together to learn about community care and create art. As we move through the weeks, we’ll each make our own zines, with supplies provided by Mycelium!

    • Weekly online gatherings in a cohort of 6
    • Workshops on HIV artivism, kitchen-table organizing, harm reduction, and abolitionist care
    • $500 honorarium and free art supplies
  • When & Where

    • January 14th to February 18th 2026, Wednesday evenings 6-8 PM PST
    • Additional monthly socials in Prince George and the Lower Mainland

    • Hi! I’m Jessamyn (jess-ah-min, they/them). I'm a 2nd-generation Taiwanese settler on the traditional and stolen lands of the Musqueam Nation. I have big feelings about many things, including but not limited to: abolitionist care practices, food sovereignty, and queer bookstores. I am often growing food and flowers, befriending neighborhood animals, and thinking about bringing more animal friends into my life. If you have questions about QAC, what I do, or who I am, feel free to send me a message at [email protected]!
    • Howdy! I’m Colby (they/them, he/him). I'm a white settler who grew up on the Traditional and Unceded Territory of the St'át'imc peoples, colonially known as Lillooet, BC, and currently live on Lheidli T'enneh Territory (Prince George). I volunteer as the Vice President of the Northern Pride Centre at UNBC and work as a Youth Research Associate with REIMAGYN-BC. When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me lost on a trail somewhere, experimenting with new recipes, curating oddly specific playlists, or finding any excuse to share food with friends. Have questions about QAC, my work, or anything in between? Feel free to reach out at [email protected]!
