COMMUNITY CONSULTATION
FANTOM’s first survey closed February 28, 2023, with 106 participants giving detailed responses as part of our strategy to assess to needs of queer, trans, and BIPOC nightlife artists, organizers, and workers in Montreal’s underground.
We plan to start releasing results in April, highlighting common themes from all of the input we've received from those who took a moment to share their dreams and concerns with us.
A full report will be published in June.
We are currently establishing open working groups centred around the key themes identified by the survey. The outcomes of these conversations will form the basis for our guidebook and our first year of advocacy.
