Skateboard clinics for all ages and abilities is a staple at NYCSP, and it will always be an intentional space for [[gender non-conforming]], trans folx, non-binary folx, and cis women who skate. But beyond that, we have done art shows, poetry, and zine workshops, and we've had live music and free skate. It's such a beautiful way to celebrate the community when I can take on any ideas, and let the event grow into something beyond my own imagination.<ref name="Eloise" />}} | Skateboard clinics for all ages and abilities is a staple at NYCSP, and it will always be an intentional space for [[gender non-conforming]], trans folx, non-binary folx, and cis women who skate.

{{quote|I almost feel like there is no gender; I don't identify with any of that. All of it feels so foreign. I'm not a woman, and if you take the "standard" definition of what a man is, I'm definitely not that. I'm floating around in space somewhere between the two. Nonbinary feels comfortable, and it feels correct. He/him and they/them pronouns feel good. We need to create visibility and space for people to be who they are, and to not have to fit into these molds.<ref name="time-baker" />}} | |||
