The Prism Center

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

The Transformation Project is holding two groundbreaking events this week.

On Wednesday, they're hosting the grand opening for the Prism Center, a new community center in Sioux Falls that seeks to welcome and celebrate transgender South Dakotans.

And on Thursday, the organization is holding an event designed to spotlight gender-diverse fashion innovation. Transforming the Runway happens at 6:30 p.m. at the Icon Lounge in Sioux Falls.

We get a preview of these events from their organizers. Maisy Kleinschmit is a program manager and the Prism Center director at the Transformation Project. Shannon Wright-Barnes is manager of Marty's Closet at the Transformation Project.
