TRANS WEEK OF REMEMBRANCE 2012

TRANS WEEK OF REMEMBRANCE
EVENT LISTINGS 2012

The Centre for Women and Trans People will commemorate this year’s Trans Day of Remembrance by offering a full week of Remembrance for Trans, Genderqueer, Gender-variant and Gender Non-conforming people, and all who have been impacted by anti-trans violence and discrimination. A week is not enough – together let’s continue to actively resist violence and celebrate trans lives always. The Centre is honoured to be part of this work and hopes everyone has a chance to create a space for the remembrance of community members hurt or lost, and to collect and share in our own personal reflections.

ALL events are free. Refreshments and TTC tokens will be made available.

CHANGES TO THE SCHEDULE***

Unfortunately, the Community Acupuncture Session on Nov 27th and the Trans 101 Workshop on the 28th will be postponed until January! Apologies for the inconvenience. We will keep you posted!
