Please join us Friday March 31st 6-8PM as we honor 2 portraiture artists, eat a little food and honor trans families in our community.

Transforming Generations and In Progress are honored to present an exhibit of portraits honoring Trans Day of Visibility. The photographs featured in this exhibit represent two years of portraiture events facilitated by IP artists Tomas Leal and TJ Lor.

“Trans Day of Visibility is an annual observance on March 31st that celebrates the achievements and resilience of transgender and gender non-conforming individuals. The day is an opportunity to raise awareness of the challenges that trans people face and to recognize their contributions to society. It is also a call to action to create a more inclusive and accepting world where everyone can live authentically and without fear of discrimination or violence.” For more information about this exhibit please email: Seng Xiong at: sengx@transforminggenerations.org.

This exhibit will be on display at: Studio 213 / 213 Front Avenue / Saint Paul MN. 55117 please email info@in-progress.org to schedule a time to view the work
