Join me for a night of new music, poetry, and performance art exploring the impact of anti-transgender hate and queer resilience.

The program will include new spoken word + piano music where Silen will share their story about being targeted by anti-trans hate, and piano-vocal songs about the resilience and beauty of queerness.

Following, we will open the stage to other poets and spoken word artists to express and share with the option of musical improvisation over their words.
