Explore how fashion has been used by the queer community to resist norms, reclaim identity, and build community.

Transform and repurpose pre-loved clothing into powerful expressions of who you are and what you stand for. Learn techniques like screen printing, embroidery, eco-dyeing, patch-making, and adornment to create one-of-a-kind looks. Gain tools for resisting fast fashion while embracing care, rewear, and sustainability.

This program culminates in an alternative fashion show, where participants showcase their creativity.
