RBC Presents: An Evening in Damascus returns in its eighth year!
Over the past years, we brought you some of the most delicious Syrian dishes, entertaining drag queens and belly dancers, heart-felt storytelling, all while we raised funds for LGBTQ+ identifying refugees.
Since its humble beginning, An Evening in Damascus raised over $250,000.
Your support had offered a safe passage to eighteen queer and trans refugees to find a home in Canada.
This year, we want to do all of that again, and then some more!
Step into the magical hall at the Terminal City Club, and be transformed into a time of love and joy in Damascus. Enjoy an open buffet made by the women of Tayybeh: A Celebration of Syrian cuisine, and cheer for the belly-dancers, the drag Queens and the Oud players. Listen to meaningful stories on immigration, refugees and settlement. Together, we will make this place a home for you, and for all of us.
Your ticket comes with two complementary drinks.
We wish to acknowledge the ancestral, traditional and unceded Aboriginal territories of the Coast Salish Peoples, and in particular, the Squamish, Musqueam, and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations on whose territory we work live and play.
