As trans folks, particularly People of Color (POC) it can be hard to find spaces where we can feel at total ease. During the summer many pools and beaches can feel unsafe/unwelcoming. TFT Pool Party was made for TPOC to bathe and splash in the sun without the added stares and whispers. It is our trans given right to party and feel connected to land, spirit, body, and community!
Hosted by Philly Trans Mascs of Color (@phillytmoc) with the support of @thebrownboiproject tickets will be sliding scale to any trans bipoc participants or pay what you can.
All proceeds will go directly to @underground.laboratories, a mutual aid and crowdfunding group based in Philadelphia. With over 30k raised, UA has supported black trans folks with rent, medical, and living expenses.
TICKET BREAKDOWN : Venmo/Cashapp BOUKMAN1804
COMMUNITY (TPOC) – sliding scale $0-$25
ALLY – $30

***RIDESHARING***
Dover (Delaware) is about 1.5/2 hrs outside of Philadelphia. We know thats not ideal for most, but we promise it’ll be worth the drive! For those in need of transportation please reach out to phillytmoc@gmail.com. If youve got space, ridesharing is a great way to get to know some folks before you get to the space, and split gas!
