GSEC Events - Spring 2012

Trailblazing transgender choreographer Sean Dorsey and a stellar cast of dancers chase the naked truth in Uncovered: The Diary Project. Using text from real-life diaries of transgender and queer people, Uncovered's powerful dances reveal lives and stories that history has tried to erase. Out spill diary secrets, bathhouse antics, pop idols, outrageous love, impossible courage and the importance of documenting and sharing our history.

Sean Dorsey is an award-winning choreographer, writer and dancer. Celebrated as the nation's first out transgender modern dance choreographer, Dorsey has won audiences from San Francisco to New York with his powerful dances that provide a window into transgender and queer experience. Dorsey is also the founder and Artistic Director of Fresh Meat Productions, the nation's first transgender arts nonprofit creating, presenting and touring year-round transgender arts programs.

The LGBTQ Conference is a one day event of workshops and inspiring speakers, which focuses on LGBTQ leadership and involvement within the community and on campus. Come be a part of this opportunity to brainstorm, network and ultimately make our community of Chico a safer place for everyone.




This event has traditionally been called the Maggie Awards and has celebrated outstanding women in our community, but this year we will also be celebrating the incredible work done by the LGBTQ and ally community with the Milk Awards. The awards are given off of the nominee's abilities to create change in the world on a global, local, community, and campus level. This Awards ceremony began in 1994 to pay tribute to everyday incredible women and men in the community who have been significant in the lives of others. We encourage you to nominate an influential and amazing person for one of our categories!
