⭐ ABOUT THE EVENT ⭐

Join us at The Stud in San Francisco for a party to raise money for The Trans Trucker Project, an indie short documentary about the trans trucking community!

The theme is ASPHALT COWBOY. Think reclaimed urban cowboy, Americana, denim cut-offs, muscle tees, oil stains... 🚛 💋

Enjoy music, light bites, and a sneak peek at the film, all to celebrate badass trans truckers and support indie queer cinema!

⭐ ABOUT THE FILM ⭐

Led by an award-winning queer and trans film team, The Trans Trucker Project follows Ashleigh, a 24-year-old trans woman truck driver, as she traverses the American countryside and reflects on life on the road.

You might be surprised to learn that trans women make up as much as 3% of truckers in the U.S. (that is ~90,000 drivers)! Trucking is a dangerous industry, but the open road also provides a sense of freedom, power, and unexpected community for queer and trans people who struggle to find belonging elsewhere.

The Trans Trucker Project offers a unique vision of working-class trans people who experience immense pride and joy in their unconventional work - dispelling the harmful myth that trans rights and working-class interests are at odds with one another.

⭐ DONATION INFO ⭐

It is a critical time to uplift trans stories, but it's also harder than ever to get these projects made. But, queer and trans filmmakers have always turned to community to make and share their art. Your support will make it possible to get us through the finish line as we aim to finish the film by the end of the year.

Can't make it to the event? You can still donate to this fundraiser and share with your networks!
