Screening of Casa Susanna Documentary and Community Conversation
June 8 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join WMHT and MOUNTAIN TOP HISTORICAL SOCIETY for a free film screening and community conversation.
In the 1950s and ’60s, an underground network of transgender women and cross-dressing men found refuge at a modest house in the Catskills region of New York. Known as Casa Susanna, the house provided a safe place to express their true selves and live for a few days as they had always dreamed—dressed as and living as women without fear of being incarcerated or institutionalized for their self-expression.
This screening will take place at the Mountain Top Historical Society’s 1913 Ulster and Delaware Train Stations, an accessible building. Parking is available. Film is closed captioned. If other accommodations are needed, email Mara Drogan (she/her), Director of Community Engagement & Education, mdrogan@wmht.org.
Delectable baked goods and coffee will be served.
