You're Invited: Collecting Memory – A 2SLGBTQIA+ Storytelling Event
We’re hosting a special gathering by and for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community to help shape the upcoming Collecting Memory exhibit at the Chilliwack Museum and Archives. This exhibit will highlight voices too often left out of Chilliwack’s public history, including Two-Spirit, trans, and queer stories.
In partnership with the Chilliwack Museum, the Chilliwack Pride Society invites 2SLGBTQIA+ folks who’ve called Chilliwack home to reflect on and share their lived experiences. Through a series of creative stations, you can express your story and, if you choose, contribute your work to the fall exhibit. You’re also welcome to loan or donate artifacts to the Museum archive.
This event is about connection, reflection, and reclaiming space in the local historical record.
When: Wednesday, July 9 from 6:30 to 8:30 PM
Where: Chilliwack Museum
Who: 2SLGBTQIA+ folks aged 15+ who have called Chilliwack home. Allies are welcome as guests of someone participating. Parents/guardians may accompany younger participants.
Community is something we build together.
The Chilliwack Pride Society is grateful to be in relationship with community members, businesses, and sponsors whose values align with ours. We have come such a long way here in Chilliwack, and are lucky to do this work with such dedicated, open-minded and tenacious people.
We are more than just a society. We are a collection of outstanding members - volunteers and generous donors - who make the work we do possible. We dream of someday seeing everyone in our local 2SLGBTQIA+ community and our allies registered in our membership program.
What we do:
Merchandise + products promoting inclusivity, queer joy and human rights!

You matter. Period.
We believe that all people should be free to live as their whole authentic selves safely, openly, equitably, and proudly with a sense of belonging. Everyone, no matter who they love or how they identify, deserve to be known, accepted, celebrated and included in all aspects of society.
We’re a hub for connection, events and initiatives.
If you’re looking for specific programs and resources, we will do our best to help connect you with what you’re looking for!
