About Trans/Space
Trans/Space was created by Tucson’s Poet Laureate, TC Tolbert, a trans and genderqueer poet and educator, and has been supported by a fellowship from the Academy of American Poets. During Fall 2019, TC will lead free TNBQ+ poetry workshops across Tucson. Participants will receive a free book of Trans*, Non-binary, and/or Queer poetry of their choice. In Winter 2019-2020, TC will audio record the poetry written in these workshops. In Spring 2020, these poems will fill the airwaves of Tucson (and more!) via audio installations across town and in virtual space.
