Sport, Identity & Inclusion with Mark Tewksbury

June 11 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm MDT

To celebrate Pride Month, EPL is proud to present Olympic gold medalist Mark Tewksbury for an inspiring evening of conversation on sport, identity and the power of inclusion. As Canada’s first openly gay Olympian, Mark’s courageous coming out sparked national dialogue and helped pave the way for greater visibility and acceptance in sport.

Mark will share stories from his athletic career, reflect on the challenges and triumphs of advocacy, and explore the ongoing importance of equity, diversity, and 2SLGBTQ+ rights. From speaking at the United Nations to mentoring athletes competing in challenging global environments, his journey highlights the impact of standing up for fairness and belonging.

This event is presented in partnership with Edmonton Community Foundation and Friends of the Edmonton Public Library.

Event Listing & Graphics Disclaimer

PrideEdmonton.ca is a free, unfunded, volunteer-run community listing platform. We do not generate revenue from our services and do not receive funding or grants from community or government sources. All events and accompanying graphics are submitted by independent organizers.

Many organizers operate with little or no budget and may use a variety of tools—including AI-assisted design—to create their materials. PrideEdmonton.ca does not create, edit, review, or regulate submitted graphics, nor do we assess how they are produced.

Our focus is on ensuring broad visibility of the many Pride events happening across the region. Showcasing this diversity of programming helps build awareness, strengthen community connection, and foster greater understanding and acceptance. Responsibility for all submitted content rests solely with the event organizers.
