What is gender, and why do the categories we use to describe it change over time? Using personal narrative and photographs to illustrate the history, diversity, and social construction of gender, this interactive session invites participants to rethink gender. Let’s have some fun - thinking together beyond binaries and fixed identities toward more expansive, inclusive, and liberating ways of understanding ourselves and our human experience. Snacks provided.
