“I hope to create spaces where empowered youth can explore identity, gender and intersectional experiences while learning from their challenges and triumphs, and at the same time expanding my own imaginings of an open-gendered world”

Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Youth

Through articulation of our story we gain ownership of identity and strength of self. Fueled by this principle, this initiative seeks to help young transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) youth harness the power of their own stories through art-based workshops. The workshops will be run by other TGNC artists and community leaders, helping youth solidify community connections and envision brighter futures.
