From Bingo to Bare Bodies

Feb 07, 2007 16:04


What started as an idea jotted onto the back of a bingo ticket in a bar has transformed into a calendar of Transtastic Men.

From March 2006, when this idea was germinated, Transmen from across the country have been meeting in Northern England to take part in a photographic project to create a calendar for 2008. They have willingly stepped out of their clothes to celebrate their bodies, to raise awareness and to raise money.

The project was organised by Robert Nightingale, Lee Gale and the photographer Paula James, a local artist.

The Launch Party to celebrate the culmination of all this hard work and begin sales of the calendar takes place on the 2nd June 2007 at the WorkStation in Sheffield from 7pm - 11pm.

All profits raised go to Press for Change and FTM Network, national organisations providing support to Trans People across the UK.
