The Board of JOY Melbourne Inc invites members to attend the Annual General Meeting to be held at 6:30 pm sharp AEDT Monday 27th November 2023. The meeting will be held in person at the Theatrette at Victorian Pride Centre, Level 1, 79-81 Fitzroy St, St Kilda, VIC 3182  and via Zoom for those that wish to attend online.   

All JOY members may attend the meeting. All members will have received an email inviting them to attend the meeting in person, via zoom or to send an apology.

RSVP’s will close at 4 pm on Friday 24th November 2023. We understand that your attendance method may change at short notice due to unforeseen circumstances (e.g., COVID or other illness) so we will send the zoom link to all attendees, even if you choose to attend in person.

The JOY Annual report for 2022/23 will be presented at the meeting and available here after the meeting. 

We are excited to announce that our guest speaker for the AGM this year will be the former Premier of Victoria, Dan Andrews who is a great advocate for our rainbow communities and who played a large part in the appointment of Victoria’s first Victorian Commissioner for LGBTIQ+ Communities.
