The Transcreative Network - An Australian online digital platform designed to foster creativity and connections among TGDNB (Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Non-Binary) individuals in Australia. A secure collective gathering space for TGDNB writers and creators in Melbourne and Regional Victoria; a mycelium of trans/gender/queer creative expression and culture making. They de-compose the offcuts and debris of mainstream culture, synthesising new forms. The network is currently held in place by Avery, Madison, and Alex, disabled settler-colonial trans humans. They currently meet every month via Zoom and physical locations at both Bendigo and Melbourne.

In this episode on Queering The Air, Sasja were joined by Madison Moffat and Alex Lee to explore the essence of The Transcreative Network. They delved into how the idea for Transcreative emerged and the various offerings it brings to the table.

The brains behind The Transcreative Network:

Madison Moffat (She/Her) is a trans woman, a Transgender Victoria board member, consumer advisor to Monash Gender Clinic, co-facilitator of the TransCreative Network and Managing Editor of a new TGDNB culture community zine ‘The Trans-creator’.

Alex Lee (they/them) is a trans, queer, white, chronically activist, LGBT peer support worker and social work student. They love dreaming up creative and critical interventions with other queer folk.
