The Valley Youth Project
Founded in 2009 as a satellite of the NSYP, the Valley Youth Project (VYP) is an Kentville-based non-profit organization run by local adult volunteers, who are all members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. We facilitate twice-monthly drop-ins during the school year, with time for discussion and activities. We also provide education workshops for youth and adults.The purpose of the VYP is to provide a safe and supportive space for 2SLGBTQI+ youth and their allies to meet, share, and foster a community, and like the NSYP our goal is to make Nova Scotia a safer, healthier, and happier place for young people of all orientations and identities.

There are automatic doors at the entryway and an accessible, gender-inclusive washroom. However, may it be noted that the washroom has white amenities and white walls for those with lower visual capacities we invite you to consider that before using the space.
Sensory-wise, Jack’s Gallery can be, at times, loud and echoey. However, with the addition of more soft elements within the event setup, it is expected to reduce general space noises.
We invite you to consider this and your own personal ability before attending.
