Transform Salem – Building an inclusive artistic community for trans and queer people in the Willamette Valley.

Building an inclusive community for trans and queer artists in the Willamette Valley.

Our values

We treat ourselves and others with kindness, curiosity, and dignity.

We revel in the freedom of self-expression and determination.

We use the power of art, learning, humor, and solidarity to transform ourselves, each other, and the community.

We draw from the despair and darkness of our lives as a source of power to create hope and light.

We reject productivity at the expense of people and the planet.

We share the gifts we have been privileged to receive.

We show respect for those present and those absent.

We allow ourselves and others to learn from mistakes, while being accountable to change.

We make space for neurodiversity and all of its expressions.

We strive for community engagement by getting involved in city events and building visibility.
