2021-10-27 12:00 - 13:00
The Women on Wednesday series has returned to St. Cloud State University.
On Wednesday, October 27th the presentation is Trans in 2021.
The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated trans people’s already disproportionate risks for harassment, violence, unemployment, rejection by family and communities, discrimination, poverty and homelessness. From the interpersonal to systemic levels, transphobia presents real and significant barriers to people exercising their basic civil liberties. And while there’s so much work to do, there’s also been so much progress by and in support of trans people living full, authentic lives. In this session, our panel explores the complex realities of being a trans person in 2021. The presentation is co-sponsored by the LGBT Resource Center in commemoration of national Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender History Month.

Women on Wednesday is in person and on Zoom on Wednesday, October 27th starting at noon in the Atwood Memorial Center Theatre.

At age 88, Mick Benson has been contributing to the St. Cloud arts community for decades, an they are featuring his work as part of an effort from his community and patrons.
Among his favorite subjects to paint are historic buildings and he also likes to paint landscapes, flowers and mundane but fascinating machines from the past, redolent of history and a vanished life, such as steam-engine tractors.
Drawing and painting, Benson believes, helps people to see and to appreciate what is around them in their lives.
You can enjoy a retrospective of his life’s work in a series of events from November 1 – 13 at the Whit Gallery, located on West. St. Germain Street in downtown St. Cloud.

Many years later, in his groundbreaking autobiographical animation film, he attempts to come to terms with his haunting trauma and piece together his shattered memory.
