Elliot Page, who is known for his work as an Oscar-nominated actor and bestselling author, will be appearing in Western Massachusetts next month to support a local transgender healthcare organization. The event, which will take place in Northampton, will feature a “fireside chat” with Page to celebrate Transhealth’s third anniversary.
Page, who publicly came out as trans in 2020, will be participating in the benefit event for Transhealth, a medical group that provides primary care and gender-affirming hormonal care. The benefit event is expected to raise crucial funds for Transhealth while highlighting the impact of personal journeys in creating positive change in the world.
The Academy of Music in Northampton will host the benefit event on May 5 at 7:30 p.m., and attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a conversation with Page about his journey and his support for Transhealth’s mission. Tickets are currently on sale, with prices ranging from $46 to $87 after fees. VIP tickets are also available for $274, which includes a meet and greet opportunity with Page.
According to Transhealth CEO and President Dallas Ducar, bringing Elliot Page to celebrate the organization is a once-in-a-lifetime honor. Ducar expressed excitement about the event’s potential to support Transhealth’s mission while raising awareness about the importance of transgender healthcare.
During his “fireside chat,” Page is expected to share stories from his own journey as a trans person while highlighting the impact that healthcare can have on individuals’ lives. He is likely to emphasize how important it is for everyone – regardless of their gender identity – to have access to quality healthcare that affirms their identity.
Overall, this benefit event promises to be an inspiring evening where attendees can come together to celebrate progress made towards greater inclusion and equality for transgender individuals while continuing the fight for better healthcare outcomes.
