Transgender Oral History Project

The Transgender Oral History Project is also active in the community, hosting events in many states including Massachusetts, Illinois, Iowa, Seattle, Philadelphia, and New York City.

The Trans Oral History project was founded in 2009 by André Pérez and began with documenting the evolution of the first ever New England Transgender Pride March.

In 2011, the Trans Oral History Project participated in a two-month residency at the University of Illinois, Chicago's LGBTQ Resource Center.

TOHP collective members lead a participatory workshop series and created a multimedia exhibition featuring interview materials.
