A great pair of nights out with Reelout Queer Film & Video Festival!
The Reelout queer film + video festival was originally established as a working group of the Kingston OPIRG in 1999. In 2006, the festival was honoured with the Queen’s University Human Rights Initiative Award for their contribution to the community. In 2007, the Reelout Arts Project Inc. became a registered charitable organization and a member of Volunteer Canada and in 2008 established the Reelout in Schools Project specializing in diversity and gender diversity education. Now an exciting week-long festival, Reelout attracts people from all over who want to see exciting, challenging, fascinating films in Kingston.
You'll get the chance to chat about the films at Sir John's Public House on King Street. Sir John’s Pub occupies the building used by Sir John A. Macdonald as his law office from 1849 to 1860. Macdonald began his political career during this formative period and of course later became Canada’s first Prime Minister. He is credited as being the individual most responsible for Canada’s Confederation in 1867.The pub has a cozy atmosphere and reflects the style of the mid-nineteenth century when it was occupied by Macdonald. It is only fitting that today the building should be a Scottish pub heralding Sir John’s Scottish origins and his fondness for the drink. The pub features a good selection of imported and local beers and a large selection of Scottish single malts and blended whiskies.
