Description
November 20th is the official date of National Transgender Day of Remembrance. To honor this, the quilt made by the UMBC community will be on display in the Commons Main Street from 10am to 4pm on November 19th to spread awareness of the rippling effects of transphobia and gender-based harm. We will hold a vigil on the 20th.
Squares of the quilt were made by the UMBC community and they honor the lives and untimely deaths of those who have lost their lives because of transphobia.
If you would like to make a square or add one for the quilt, visit the Women's Center (M-Th) for supplies and additional information.
This event is part of a series of events from the Women's Center in honor of Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR).
Please note: UMBC is committed to creating an accessible and inclusive environment for all students, staff, faculty, and visitors. If you have difficulties accessing any of the materials on our site or any of our events or discussions, please contact us so that we can provide an alternative format and/or remedy any accessibility challenges at womenscenter@umbc.edu.
