Join community members from around Western Massachusetts as we come together to celebrate our strength and resiliency on Trans Day of Visibility!
Featuring a resource AND art fair showcasing affirming and inclusive community based organizations; trans and gender expansive artists displaying and selling their artwork; a gender affirming clothing swap; name change support and legal resources; as well as light refreshments. The event is free and open to youth, families, and community members.
Location will be inside the Northampton Center for the Arts. There is an accessible entrance, all gender restrooms, parking, and a community support team made up of community volunteers to help ensure our space will be comfortable and safe for our community.
MASKS REQUIRED!
In order to ensure ALL our community members can take part in this event, we are requiring masks. This helps keep all of us safer, and in wearing masks we are creating equitable and accessible places for people to build and be in community with one another. If you need a high quality, N95 mask, we will have them available at the door.
