“TU Celebración”
Southern Californians are invited to a celebration of culture and fashion Monday, Dec. 15 at Arena Nightclub in Los Angeles.
Transgéneros Unidas, a Bienestar group of Latina transgenders, is hosting “TU Celebración,” a gala and fashion parade that honors the community’s achievements and seeks to unify the local transcender community.
Actor Gabriel Romero is scheduled to present the more than 70 transgender women on the red carpet modeling fashions of several Latino designers including Adán Terriquez, Tony Iñiguez, Eruvey Hernández, Adolfo Alvarado, Lupita Amparo y Cecilia Martínez.
“TU Celebración is an event of unification, of celebration, of showing who we are with dignity, feeling proud of being transgender,” said Cristina Lugo, Los Angeles Latina transcender community leader. “I hope many people attend, support the event and show their commitment to our community.”
