Falls Church City pianist Mary Voutsas presents a program for Trans Day of Remembrance, featuring the music of trans/andina composer inti figgis-vizueta, alongside works by Franz Liszt and Gabriel Faure. Other collaborating artists include percussionist Nik Francis, clarinetist and drag performer Kirby the Drag Queen, painter Zhenya Parish, who will execute a new oil painting during the concert. The goal of this performance is to bring together several artists to create a space in our community of Falls Church City that honors those that have lost their lives to anti-transgender violence, and to memorialize Sam Nordquist, a transgender person that was killed in February 2025. We hope to create a space for reflection, and ultimately, support and awareness.

Our nonprofit partner for this event will be SafeSpaceNoVA. SafeSpaceNoVA's objective is to create spaces where LGBTQ+ youth feel valued, respected, and supported in expressing their identities authentically.

At the core of our efforts is the belief that all young people, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression, deserve to thrive in environments that affirm their identities and celebrate their diversity.
