Presenter:
Tyler J Sloane (they/them), Multi-Disciplinary Artist, Performer, & Producer

Tyler J Sloane is a multi-disciplinary artist with a background in community engagement and queer activist facilitation in the workplace. Their artistic leadership has led them to guide rooms and art practices, as well as mentoring folks through their own art creation. In performance arts, this has surfaced primarily through their queer-based performance-act program ‘It’s All Queer Pride’, which has held 33 participants with 25 guest facilitators within 4 cycles. Tyler’s lead workshops in; Communal Mural Art Creation, Art’s Professionalism, and Somatic & Mask Performance. Through this leadership journey, they’ve been mentored on the importance of queer and Indigenous history, which has risen in their DEI work where they’ve trained over 30+ organizations on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the workplace with a focus on Indigenous 2-Spirit artists, queer history, and Trans-affirmation. Much of their work in the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion sector was with the esteemed organization Elevate Equity, where they trained organizations in the sectors of; Cannabis, Black Youth-Leadership, Artpreneurship, and Sexual assault centres. With the majority of that number inclusive under the leadership of the Ontario Coalition for Rape Crisis Centres. Prior to this they held a role as Youth Facilitator alongside queer activist and legend leZlie Lee Kam in Buddies in Bad Time’s intergenerational community series the Youth/Elder’s project from 2020 to 2022, the project existing as both community conversation and a podcast series, while being a participant in the theatrical production of the project in 2017. Along with all this work they continue to support Indigenous community members through guest speaking with the organization Indigenous Friends.
