This event aims to celebrate the GENDER book as a fun, colorful, community-based resource that illustrates the beautiful diversity of gender. Come meet creators Boston Davis Bostian, Jay Mays, and Robin Mack and interact with their page illustrations with current content thus far, text-less layouts for a community editing process. ADD to the content of the GENDER book! The creators will also post the "Gender Identity Board Game!" along with a video documenting the GENDER book's process of "How Illustration Works" by resident artist Mel Reiff Hill.
