[ARCHIVED] Orange County to celebrate International Transgender Day of Visibility

Project Engage Logo

The Orange County Department on Aging and the Project EngAGE LGBTQ+ Senior Resource Team invite the public to attend a virtual documentary screening of The Ties that Bind on March 31.

As we celebrate International Transgender Day of Visibility we invite you join us for a showing of The Ties that Bind.  The documentary delivers an introspective and honest exploration of acceptance as it details Diana Newton’s journey with her sister Christine, a Trans woman and their family as they navigate the emotional and physical struggles of transitioning.  Diana Newton offers a glimpse into the world of a Southern family as they confront society’s cultural bias and learn to face their own personal journey to live authentically.

Join us as we explore this thoughtful and heartfelt documentary with Diana offering a Q&A Session to follow.

The event will take place on Wed, March 31, from 6 – 8 p.m. via a virtual platform.
