This zine tells the story of the Norfolk Trans Joy Community Quilt.

Created in collaboration with the team behind the quilt, this zine features essays, interviews and photographs from Daniel Fountain, Rowan Frewin, Alice Bigsby-Bye and Beau Brannick that document the inspiration, processes and stories that went into the Norfolk Trans Joy Community Quilt. 

ABOUT THE QUILT

The Norfolk Trans Joy Community Quilt consists of individual squares crafted by trans, nonbinary, gender non-conforming people and trusted allies, expressing personal forms of joy relating to the trans experience. Initiated, organised and crafted by Norwich-based artists and activists Beau Brannick and Alice Bigsby-Bye, this community quilt responds to the onslaught of biased media, dangerous politics, and the rise in hate crimes against transgender people close to home and further afield.
