The Archive Dive project brings groups together to explore lesbian and queer history through a local archive which includes Womonspace newsletters spanning 1982–2007 as well as books and other resources. Unlike formal archives which are mostly accessed solo and in protected environments, the Archive Dive collection travels to classes, libraries, coffee shops, pub trivia nights and other informal settings.⁠ Archive Dive is a project by Kristy Harcourt, a long time organizer in Edmonton’s 2SLGBTQ+ community. In addition to nerding about lesbian and queer history, Kristy works as a therapist and teaches courses in Social Work and Gender Studies. ⁠
