By trans+ folks,
For trans+ folks.
Blue Ridge Pride is excited to partner with Youth OUTright and Tranzmission to present WNC Trans+ Pride, the first ever transgender pride event in Asheville!
This is a celebration of transgender, non-binary, intersex, Two-Spirit, and all gender non-conforming people.
Join us at Hi-Wire Brewing in Biltmore Village (2A Huntsman Place, Asheville, NC) on June 21, 12 PM to 6 PM—all ages welcome!
Trans+ vendors
nonprofits, food trucks / restaurants, artists, merchants, organizations, healthcare networks, and businesses focused on trans community & resilience
Trans+ safety
as an alternative to police presence, we plan to incorporate trained community members who are well versed in de-escalation, trauma-informed care, and community safety.
Trans+ workshops
skillshares, presentations, yoga/
physical wellness, info-sharing, intergenerational conversations, counseling spaces, and advocacy relating to trans+ communities
and our needs
Trans+ performers
musicians, drag performers, comics, dancers, performance artists who identify as trans+
Trans+ resource sharing
clothing swaps, free binding / tucking supplies, health and wellness items, trans+ library & educational resources, survival essentials, etc.
Trans+ social connection
trans+ folks need safe spaces to connect with other folks with shared identities and experiences- especially trans+ youth in this moment of increased discrimination and infringement upon self-expression. Representation matters! And seeing trans+ folks of all ages in their beauty and expansiveness is so important for youth- and all people- to feel as though they belong and are deserving of care, community, and safety.

Your donations will go directly towards fairly paying TGNC performers, ensuring access to Trans+ Pride for folks who are income-insecure, purchasing gender affirming resources to be distributed at Pride, and creating a safe and vibrant environment for TGNC folks to celebrate our transness.
