Trans Tailoring First Anniversary Party! (Oakland)

Come celebrate one year of Trans Tailoring with activities, snacks, a raffle of hand-sewn goods, some sewing and alterations demonstrations, and lots of general merriment! Guests are welcome to bring sewing and alterations projects to ask questions about or work on in the space, or just come by to have a snack and hang out. The raffle for goods will be fundraising for the creation of a Trans Tailoring zine. Schedule of demos and activities forthcoming.

CREATOR/ORGANIZER BIO

Gene Anderson (they/he) is a self-taught stitcher, quilter and designer who learned to sew clothes that fit his trans body from the generosity of queer sewing mentors, and Trans Tailoring was created as a way to continue and expand that journey with others. Gene is the creator of The Jilt and several machine-sewn quilts, as well as a local bookkeeper, plant dad, and part-time queer brunch host.
