2018 has been quite the year for the Calgary Gay History Project. A film. A book. A residency at the new Central Library. Thanks to Calgary readers, Our Past Matters hit the number two spot in the Calgary Herald’s best-sellers list this week.

I am truly grateful for all of the support of the History Project and the warm reception the book received. I am wishing everyone a joy-filled (and restful) holiday season and a very Happy New Year.
Merry Xmas
As a final website post for 2018, I thought I would share some images of Calgary gay history in Christmases past. It evokes for me, a line I used in the book: “We were here, and we always have been.”
- Myrt’s was a gay bar located at 808 9 Ave. SW
- Modern Pink was a publication that grew out of Lesbian and Gay Youth Calgary (LGYC)
- Clue! Magazine was published in Calgary from 1992-1995.
