Slay the Runway, which first launched in fall 2021, is a workshop in fashion design, performance and sewing, aimed at creating safe spaces for LGBTQ+ teens to express themselves. At the conclusion of a two-week session, students participated in a professionally produced runway show at the ATLAS Institute's B2 Center for Media, Arts and Performance

Watch this summer’s participants create and perform their own inspired looks, while program co-founder Steven Frost (pronouns: they/them), a professor of media studies, discusses how the workshop celebrates and empowers our local LGBTQ+ communities.
