Black History Month Gender-Affirming Makeup Workshop

Join us for this workshop to celebrate Black History Month. Starr will focus on a specific makeup look, and Iggy will demonstrate a gender-euphoric approach to makeup. The path to understanding ourselves as trans and nonbinary is often riddled with physical and social “dysphoria.” Dysphoria is the opposite of euphoria and is often extremely painful, as we experience a distancing from our own being. The reasons for this are many, such as prevailing social gender stereotypes. Using makeup can be extremely affirming to all gender identities. Attendees will have an opportunity to try out the looks and take photographs in our photo booth. Lunch will be served.
