The Transformation Project is holding two groundbreaking events this week.

On Wednesday, they're hosting the grand opening for the Prism Center, a new community center in Sioux Falls that seeks to welcome and celebrate transgender South Dakotans.

And on Thursday, the organization is holding an event designed to spotlight gender-diverse fashion innovation. Transforming the Runway happens at 6:30 p.m. at the Icon Lounge in Sioux Falls.

We get a preview of these events from their organizers. Maisy Kleinschmit is a program manager and the Prism Center director at the Transformation Project. Shannon Wright-Barnes is manager of Marty's Closet at the Transformation Project.
