Successes and Lessons Learned

17/6/2021

0 Comments

 
This past weekend was a wonderful celebration of being ourselves, enjoying our identities, and immersing ourselves in the joy of our bodies, that feeling of Gender Euphoria.
Transgender artists from Elora to London, Beamsville to Cambridge, Hamilton to Guelph, fifty eight individuals in all, participated in our first Paint Pour Party. 

While it was a great event, it was not without problems. We forgot to send the email out for the 18+ party until 20 minutes before the event. And even then, some people missed out because of faulty systems implemented to send emails in batches.

We reached out to those affected, sent emails to offer suggestions on how to do what we had done during our event, and chalked it down to first-time mistakes (which won't be repeated). We've committed to having a staff member to deal with last-minute messages asking for information, and also learning how to use a system like MailChimp properly.  
​
For all of you who participated, thank you for joining us! For those who are seeing these paintings that were created during our event, and would like to learn more about having an event for your community, please use the contact form on our Contact us page.

OUR FIRST PROJECT - GENDER EUPHORIA

20/5/2021

0 Comments

 
We are so excited! 

This June 2021, the TransArtivistProject.org is hosting its very first project in the Guelph/KW area and the theme for our project is

Gender Euphoria! 

Remember the first time that you figured out your gender? How great it felt to be in your body? Like all the parts of your body just thrummed in excitement? How you could feel every hair on your head, smell things that were a block away, taste the colour of the sunset, and hear the smile on your face? How you felt inside when someone finally got your pronouns right? 

Tap into your memory of Gender Euphoria while making colourful paintings using an easy and fun painting technique:
Acrylic Pour


The TransArtivistProject.org will be running up to two Paint Pour Parties  during Pride Month with a maximum of 30 participants per party. One will be for those 18+; another will be for trans youth and their families. 
Participants will receive a complete kit, delivered at their home, with supplies and instructions for how to join the Pour Party. 

To state your interest in being a participant, to sign up a youth, or to offer donations of time/materials/money for this event, please complete the contact form no later than May 15, 2021. ​
