About this event

We remember through making; and in creating, connection, and community, we rise.

A reimagined Trans Day of Remembrance that honors our lost loved ones through art, memory, and connection. Take part in guided workshops like creating ancestor boxes, building an altar, candle making & intention setting, and creative writing, or enjoy open studio stations with wallpaper coloring, mask making, and more.

Together, we will create a communal altar to honor our trans and queer ancestors, then close with shared art and reflection.

All materials provided; you are welcome to bring your own.
