TransAmsterdam is a trans organization that deals with art, culture, and lifestyle. Our goal is to increase the visibility of trans people, including non-binary people, and improve their image through art and culture. Are you an artist, and do you want to share or develop your talents? Or would you like to meet other people in and surrounding the trans community? Then TransAmsterdam is the organization for you!

 

Through the lens of art and culture, we strive to redefine the narrative around trans individuals, showcasing them as multifaceted beings beyond their gender identity. In doing so, we bridge the gap between the trans community and society, fostering a sense of empowerment and emancipation among transgender individuals in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and beyond. 

 

To showcase trans people’s creativity, we collaborate with diverse artists, such as photographers, actors, poets, musicians, writers, filmmakers, and painters. We also collaborate with national and international art and cultural organizations. In 2019, we founded the Trans Art School, where trans people can participate in art, cultural, and lifestyle workshops.
