How do we render space and beauty for ourselves out of the English language’s colonial landscape? How can prayer be a place to “shape God [and] shape change” (adrienne maree brown with Octavia Butler)? In this workshop, Micah Rosegrant and Nico Pang will invite participants into their practice of trans-affirmative spirituality, and then together everyone will explore poetry and spoken word as sites for imagining queer and trans futures.

No experience required; all experience welcome. Come with a way to write (pen and paper, typing device, voice and recorder) and an openness to discovery. This event centers 2S&trans+ beings, while inviting and welcoming all.
