SPACE POLICY

We are committed to a practice of safety, inclusivity, and connection. We will continue to grow and learn in order to hold this commitment.

We do not tolerate any form of homophobia, racism, sexism, transphobia, ableism, ageism, sexual harassment, assault, discrimination, or violence. Any attendee showing the above will have the opportunity of one conversation with staff on how their behaviour is harmful. Should they continue, the attendee will be removed. Instigators of sexual assault or violence will be removed without warning.

Core staff have received safer space and anti-oppression training to better support our community. Please ask for us at the door if you need someone to talk to at a Venus Fest event.

If you have any questions, or if there are specific additional measures you’d like to see to help you feel safe and respected at our events, please get in touch and we will do our best to honour them.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Venus Fest acknowledges that the land that we meet on is the traditional territory of many Nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples, and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. We acknowledge the federally signed Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Williams Treaties, signed by 7 Chippewa and Mississauga Nations, and the traditional Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Treaty signed between the Nations to protect these lands and waters.

As an organization, we are working to learn more about the land we are on, and to find ways of honouring Indigenous sovereignty in our programming, in our operations, and in financial reparations wherever possible. We also acknowledge that we have a lot more work to do as an organization, and much more to learn. If you are a settler, we urge you to take some time with us to reflect and learn about the history of the land on which you live, the Indigenous communities who have cared for the land and water, and how you might participate in restoring justice.

Venus Fest is a Tkaronto/Toronto not-for-profit music festival, mentorship program, and concert series.
