The Bay Area Council on Gender Diversity continuously works on increasing the visibility of trans people. This spring, we have primarily focused on updating The Transperience. Steve Oakley from Practical Illusions, working with the Trans Artists Collaborative of BACGD, is shown here shooting a video of Joseph Torres. Joseph, a two-spirit member of the Oneida Nation, will be included in the updated and refreshed installation of The Transperience. This updated and refreshed version of The Transperience will be unveiled this summer as an exhibit at the Neville Museum in Green Bay, July 13 through August 18.
