Saturday Nov 20th - Candlelight Vigil 8PM @ Lake Eola
November 20th marks the recognized Transgender Day of Remembrance. After a week of educational events regarding transgender issues, we will remember those we have lost due to hate and ignorance by lighting a candle in their honor. May our candles light the way to a future where everyone can be themselves regardless of how they identify.
