🏳️🌈 SAVE THE DATE — NOVEMBER 14 🏳️⚧️
It’s officially time to soft launch this year’s Gender-Affirming Haircut Event! ✂️💜
On November 14 from 11 AM–4 PM, I’ll be hosting our annual event at Morgantown Art Party, offering FREE gender-affirming haircuts to members of our local LGBTQ+ community.
I already have three amazing stylists volunteering alongside me, with names and more details coming soon!
We’ll be accepting walk-ins, but appointments are strongly encouraged. Once our books are full, we won’t be able to accommodate additional walk-ins, so please email ahead to guarantee your spot.
I’m also looking for local businesses, artists, makers and community members who want to get involved. We’re accepting raffle prizes, gift certificates, finger foods, refreshments, donated goods and, of course, anyone interested in volunteering their time or talents.
One of my favorite parts of this event is seeing just how much our little corner of West Virginia shows up for our trans and LGBTQ+ neighbors. If you’re a local business owner looking for a tangible way to show your support, this is a wonderful opportunity to do it. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
And speaking of showing up, a HUGE thank you to my friend Gina, who volunteered her time and talent to create these beautiful flyers for us. 💜 No water was wasted and AI had no part in the making of these flyers. Just a talented real-life human supporting her community.
At the end of the day, that’s what this event is about: people showing up for people. 💜
Whether you want to donate, volunteer, sponsor, or simply help spread the word, please reach out!
