💥 REGISTRATION OPEN
TENANT RIGHTS FOR ARTS WORKERS

Wednesday May 6
6-7:30pm

The ongoing housing crisis in Ontario affects all low- and moderate-income, precariously employed workers, including artist-producers in the performing arts. This workshop is an opportunity for arts workers in Generator’s extended community to connect with leading organizers in the housing justice movement to learn more about their rights as tenants, what housing justice organizing looks like locally, and how to connect with supportive resources. This 90-minute session will take place online and include a presentation from ACORN leaders followed by an opportunity for questions and answers.

This workshop is best suited for: People working (full-time, part-time, or occasionally) in the performing arts who are low- to moderate income and and have a vested interest in housing justice. This might include renters, people who are precariously housed, and people who are curious about renting in the future.

Registration is required. This workshop will take place online, on Zoom.

Accessibility information: ASL interpretation will be provided upon request and the Zoom call will have live captions. Workshop slides will be provided to registered participants after the session.
