Description

May 19–22 Saskatoon The SGC hosted the Prairie Gay Conference, which attracted more than one hundred people, almost half of them women. There were a variety of workshops, dances, and cultural events held during the conference. This was the first prairie gay conference held since May 1975. A proposal for a fall prairie gay cultural event was advanced at the conference, resulting in the first Metamorphosis celebration held October 6–9, 1978. There was also a commitment made by delegates that a Prairie Gay Conference would be held annually; Calgary was chosen as the host city for 1979. (See also October 6–9, 1978.)
