At cSPACE, we’re proud to support a wide range of community-driven events by providing an inclusive and welcoming venue for learning, dialogue, and creative exchange. This April, we’re pleased to host an important professional development opportunity presented by Spindle Films Foundation.

Join Javelin Laurence (they/them), an ICF-trained coach and multidisciplinary storyteller, for Gender Diversity Training for Allies in the Film Industry. This in-person, experiential workshop is designed to support cisgender professionals working across Alberta’s film industry in building the knowledge and practical skills needed to be effective allies to gender-diverse colleagues.

Through guided discussion, hands-on exercises, and real-world case studies, participants will deepen their understanding of gender identity and gain confidence in navigating inclusive practices in the workplace. The session offers a supportive environment to ask questions, practice using gender-neutral language and pronouns, and explore best practices for fostering respectful and equitable collaboration.
