April 23, 2026
T4T an intentional space for transgender, nonbinary, and gender non-conforming artists to share their creative craft(s) on stage!
Tell me a story about your reality
I’ll tell you one about mine.
Surveilled but not seen
Drenched in dreams
Illogically juxtaposed
This world
A floral armor
Weaved into pleasure
Illogically juxtaposed
This world
Still I Rebel
And feel euphoria
In this world

Trans Stories & Storytelling Workshop
April 25, 2026
As trans and nonbinary people, telling our own stories can be both empowering and overwhelming. Join us to brainstorm your stories, do some writing, and practice sharing in a safe and friendly environment. We’ll also reflect on how story and storytelling tools can support your poetry, personal essays, nonfiction writing, playwriting, or other creative and artistic work.
Facilitated by Rebecca Kling. For more than twenty years, transgender artist and advocate Rebecca Kling has taught theatre and storytelling skills to others, worked as a professional storyteller, and toured her work to conferences and theatre festivals across the country.
