Every spring, the LGBTQ Resource Center shifts the focus from remembrance to liberation with Transgender Week of Liberation (TWoL). While we recognize that the national event is named “Transgender Day of Visibility,” we believe that visibility alone is not enough. We challenge ourselves and encourage you to push beyond visibility and towards transgender liberation. Please access the full schedule of the week’s events below:
March 24: Queer Pop-Up Closet Clothing Drop-Off
March 25: Queer Closet Kickoff and Makeup Workshop
March 25-29: Queer Pop-Up Closet
March 26: Exploring and Embracing Identity in the Working World
March 27: TWoL Open Mic Night
March 28: Comics and Conversation With Bishakh Som
March 29: Knit 3 Spill the Tea
March 29: TWoL Creative Space
The LGBTQ Resource Center will be hosting a Queer Clothing Pop-Up Closet for Trans Week of Liberation from Monday, March 25 through Friday, March 29 in 132 Schine whenever the Intercultural Collective is open!
Come by and drop off clothing that you no longer need, and throughout the week explore different gender-affirming clothing! Clothes must be clean and in good condition (no rips, tears, holes, etc.) or they will be turned away.
Come knit, crochet, sew or participate in any of your favorite arts and crafts with fellow members of the Syracuse University and SUNY ESF LGBTQ community!
Join the LGBTQ Resource Center for our finale event of Trans Week of Liberation by stopping by an open creative space! Do crafts, do homework, knit, draw, write—whatever you want to do, this is your space to express yourself and be yourself with other trans people.
A space for individuals that identify as asexual, aromantic, demi, gray, questioning or anything else under the ace umbrella.
The LGBTQ Resource Center provides an affinity space for Syracuse University and SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) faculty and staff that are parents or family members of a queer or trans child, or for parents and caretakers of a queer or trans Syracuse University or SUNY ESF student. This affinity group meets on the first Wednesday of every month at noon.
