About THEIR
THEIR is an initiative that creatively supports, uplifts, and celebrates trans+ people.
THEIR encourages and promotes trans creativity through arts-focused events and socials made for and by the trans+ community.
THEIR workshops will explore the rich history of transness locally and globally, starting with a project that focuses on transmasculine and butch histories. THEIR is an inclusive space open to everyone under the trans and GNC umbrella.
The initiative is founded and directed by Net Ember (they/them).
THEIR is supported with funding from Andrew Lumsden’s Grand Camp Maisie Fund.
Transmasculine people, trans men and butch people have suffered from widespread erasure historically, and there remains few spaces for us.
THEIR formed out of the severe lack of spaces and events dedicated to the trans+ community, and hopes to be a longstanding initiative, facilitating regular events in partnership with local organisations.
From early 2026, THEIR creative workshops and socials will include: zine and badge-making, FLARB bookclub sessions, placard making for Southampton Pride, and DJ tutorship with Address CIC.
