Trans Art Rising — A Performance Art Evening of Resistance

Trans Art Rising is a powerful performance art evening and collective call to action—an artistic resistance movement that brings together performers, visual artists, writers, and allies to stand in solidarity with transgender and non-binary communities in the face of the Trans Amendment Bill 2026. Organized by Dragvanti, this gathering recognizes performance art not merely as entertainment, but as a living, breathing act of resistance—a space where bodies, voices, and stories become instruments of truth, visibility, and social change.

Through performance art, spoken word, drag, movement, and community expression, Trans Art Rising transforms the stage into a site of courage and defiance. It centers trans and non-binary voices, affirms identities, and reclaims dignity in a time when policies attempt to define who we are. Each performance becomes a statement: that our existence is valid, our stories matter, and our art is a form of survival.

This performance art evening is not just about witnessing—it is about standing together, feeling together, and rising together. It is a reminder that our lives are not amendments to be debated, but stories to be performed, heard, respected, and celebrated.
Join us at Lamakaan from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM for an evening of performance, solidarity, and resistance—because when art rises, communities rise, and when communities rise, change becomes possible. 🎭✊🏽🌈
