Vigil for Transgender Day of Remembrance

  • Equality Community Center 15 Casco Street Portland, ME, 04101 United States (map)

Sponsored by: PFLAG & MaineTransNet

Every year it is hard and heavy when we gather for Transgender Day of Remembrance, and in a year when we honor the lost life of a trans Mainer, we are also reminded of how deeply we need one another on this and every day. Please join us for the reading of names as well as remarks from community members representing the arts, education, mental health care, and faith communities on navigating collective grief, and stay afterward to talk about what we need in order to find hope in the darkest moments.

Speakers:

Quinn Gormley
Ian-Khara Ellasante
T Love Smith
Pete Franzen

This event will have live ASL interpretation.
