How does one live a feminist life? What can these struggles – and the thoughts they bring – teach us, individually and collectively? What are our paths towards human, ideological and territorial connection at a time of great upheaval for our lives and our worlds? Various guests will discuss these pressing issues in an intimate evening during which we will share thoughts and tenderness, offering a refuge where the feminisms that bridge us together can further flourish.
Biographie
Abondance is a collective that aims to pass on and renew feminist struggles and knowledge within the community of the Lower Saint-Laurent. The collective’s actions follow three main fields – Celebration: to be together, encouraging connection and joy, allowing for those who are engaged in these struggles to recharge ; Transmission: to democratize feminist knowledge, offering safer spaces to reflect, have dialogues and confront each other with humility ; Activism: to take a stand, carry the community’s voices, to make their struggles visible. The values of the Abondance collective are: Insubordination – Humility – Adelphity – Joy.

TENDERNESS! GATHERING TO BREAK ISOLATION
9 days of free artistic activities
May 7 - 15, 2022
How can art highlight our interdependencies?
Through which means can we actively be together?
What energies can we harness to open sharing spaces?
Through the interim of several activities, Tenderness! explores the many spheres of isolation - social, geographical and artistic - that shape our way of being, interacting and caring for each other. By rejecting universalities that tend to blur inequities, Tenderness! instead affirms that it is in the sum of our singularities, in the expansion of our particularities, that a commonplace can be constructed.
