2nd Annual Trans Day of Remembrance EXISTENCE IS RESISTANCE Celebration

Friday, November 21, 2025 at 7-10pm

We are joyful and defiant in our creative radiance.

After showcasing local talent last year, performers this year highlight diverse and incredibly talented performers from across the region including local poet and choreographer Gillian Ebersole (they/them),  ambient lo-fi dream pop musician bobbie (he/they), anti-disciplinary artist Dorian Wood (she/they) and DJ Michael V (he/him). The event is curated by Daly Arts.

The evening is programmed with moments for remembrance for those who have lost their lives and bring attention to the continued dehumanization and brutality endured by the trans and gender-expansive members of our community. The event will culminate in a collective dance ritual led by DJ Michael V.

In addition to live performances, there will be an altar of remembrance created by local artists, food by Farah Momen of Bondhu, and most importantly opportunities to be in community. This is an all ages / all identities event. Participants are encouraged to mask as an act of community care.

Pay-what-you-can. $30 suggested. $60 sponsors another’s attendance.
