Every two weeks, we invite members of our community to come out to the Madison Avenue Pub to engage in a collaborative exploration of our chosen topic. Through these events, we aim to build our community of people who like to think deeply about life’s big questions, and provide each other with some philosophical tools to dig deeper into whatever it is we are most curious about.
Our Curiosity Cafés are LGBTQ2S+ friendly events. We welcome and encourage attendance from those whose sexual identities are marginalized and whose experiences are underrepresented and often misrepresented.
Some accessibility-related information* about our event and the venue:
- This event involves a verbal discussion, with a handout to guide the discussion
- There will be a large-print version of the handout available
- We ask the staff at the Maddy to turn off the speakers playing music in the room we are in. Unless we end up in their “VIP” room upstairs (very unlikely!), this keeps background noise to a minimum.
- There will be earplugs available to tamper background noise
- There are about five steps up to the entrance of the Madison, and another to get in the door. In order to get upstairs, where we sometimes hold our events, there is another set of stairs that are quite steep. While we hope to be in the downstairs room, we cannot guarantee this until closer to the event date.
- There are two single stall bathrooms located downstairs that we will have access to. The other bathrooms, located on the main and upper floor, are gendered.
*We recognize that this list provides a far-from comprehensive picture of accessibility-related concerns you might have. Please feel free to contact our Café Coordinator at sophia@beingnbecoming.org, or the Madison Avenue Pub (416-927-1722) with any other questions or concerns you might have.
