MAPPING TRANS JOY is coming to Knoxville!
PLEASE SHARE!!

Tues, Feb 25, 4-6, South Press

About Mapping Trans Joy
Mapping Trans Joy is a trans-run, joy-as-resistance collaborative mapping project to showcase narratives of trans joy. Through our digital map, trans and gender nonconforming community members are invited to tell us (and the world) about where they're finding joy these days.

Thanks to generous funding from Monument Lab Re:Generation, MTJ is traveling the US Southeast to hold in-person events to build community and foster joy.

We’re Coming to Knoxville!
Join us on Tuesday, Feb 25 for an afternoon of bracelet-making and zine-making! We'll bring the supplies and together we'll have a cozy, chill time in community. While you're with us, be sure to grab some of our zines, bracelets, postcards and other goodies, and share some joy with us!

It is a sad day for our Bacon, Egg, &Cheese Croissant sandwich. Unfortunately, egg prices have surged so high that it is impractical to have them on our menu at this time. We are bummed about it too, but excited to bring you some delicious replacements.

Try our new Mother Muenster! It is a Turkey Sausage & Munesnter Cheese on a buttery Croissant.
OR our new Oataly Awesome Vegan Overnight Oats with Rolled Oats, oat milk, raisins, cinnamon, & fried apples. (brown sugar or maple syrup upon request)
