JoyFest 2025 Chicago

In support of local mutual aid groups and the Joy of Piper Foundation.

In defiance of those who seek to deny the right to self-expression.

Piper Forsen was a transfemme who fought for social justice, engaged in mutual aid, and brought joy and kindness to everyone she knew. This show intends to honor her legacy by raising money for trans mutual aid groups in Chicago, along with the Joy of Piper Foundation, a charity created by her parents that aims to bring resources and help to marginalized people.
