We had a great turnout for our fifth annual festival held on March 29, 2025. Please be sure to join us next year. Details will be posted in 2026, so check back!
This annual all-ages festival showcases the creative work of transgender, genderqueer, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming adults and youth from around Iowa. Work includes visual art and crafts for sale, food trucks and booths, live music, poetry, literature, dance, drag, and comedy performances. Local nonprofit and community organizations providing support and resources to the trans community will also be on hand.
The festival is public and open to everyone, and admission and parking are free. LGBTQ+ affirming security will also be provided so that everyone can experience a safe and fun event. Hosted by the Queer & Transgender Action Group of First Unitarian Church of Des Moines, an LGBTQ+ Welcoming Congregation. Contact us if you have any questions.
