Twenty-five years ago, Charlotte founded Wuthering Bites, a café on the Lakeshore in Mimico that focused on the arts and community. With a diverse background in teaching, research and advocacy, and a passion for writing and visual art, Charlotte is thrilled to now be working with Lakeshore Arts as they launch exciting new initiatives for our South Etobicoke neighbourhood. She is especially thrilled to have a unique opportunity to focus on engagement and programming for seniors.

Q Summit’s Poetry Reading
April 10, 2021 @ 7:00 PM
FREE
You are invited to a live-stream spoken-word event by Lakeshore Arts presented by brilliant 2SLGBTQIA+ youth and their allies aged 16 to 21. For the past ten weeks, these youth have explored the art of writing poetry and spoken word pieces, and have honed the power of using their own unique perspectives in creative work.
Please join Lakeshore Arts in celebrating the launch of their Poetry Anthology on Saturday, 10th April at 7:00 pm virtually on Zoom. The youth will perform selected pieces from their collection and there will be a community segment showcasing more creative young voices. The Anthology will be accessible by download after the event.
The Q Summit’s Mentorship Program was facilitated by artists Emily Dial and Cassandra Myers to support 2SLGBTQIA+ youth and allies in creating a safe space for creativity and self-expression.
This program is generously supported by the Johansen-Larsen Foundation.
