oestrogeneration is an indie magazine platform highlighting the voices of trans women and transfeminine people in the UK. It was born out of anger, in a media climate where trans women are constantly spoken of, but never in charge of the narrative.
Join us at 15.00 to hear June, Biogal and Carly read excerpts from the zine.
There will be copies of oestrogeneration’s first print issue: tenacity, casual conversations about how the magazine started alongside sharing experiences with writing and storytelling, and visions for transfeminine futures.
This event is part of Queer and Now, a festival dedicated to the powerful role of LGBTQIA+ art and culture in the UK.
