Home for the Holidays
A nondenominational holiday gathering and reminder that no matter what your winter break is like, there is an LGBTQ+ affirming community on campus to return to in January. Join us for crafts, games, and treats!
Rainbow Graduation and Awards
Recognizing important contributions to UVM's LGBTQ+ community and celebrating the graduation of queer & trans scholars. Receive your rainbow stole, celebrate the space and people who embrace your fullest self, and be in community as we center joy.
Community Collaborations
We know the value of connecting with communities beyond campus. Prism Center supports and organizes ways for the UVM community to engage in other important identity-affirming and justice-focused events.
March at Vermont Pride
Prism gathers UVM sponsors, organizes banner and sign decorating events, and welcomes all members of the university to march together during the Vermont Pride Parade in Burlington every fall.
Translating Identity Conference (TIC)
TIC is a one-day event with sessions throughout the day geared towards folks of all levels of education and inclusion - the conference is a safe space for trans folks and allies to come together to learn and build community. Founded in 2002, TIC was one of New England’s largest conference focused on transgender identities, issues, and intersections. After a brief hiatus between 2020-2023, TIC returned in the spring of 2024.
