PART 3 - july 6th event recap ! huge thank you to everyone who showed up, danced, laughed and held space at the closing night of the project in tkaronto <3
my intention in curating this project was to build bridges—between queer youth communities and the professional performing arts world—positioning each moment in a broader dialogue about knowledge sharing, decentralizing artistic authority, and centering the voices & visions of young queer artists. embracing the people and ressources that are already here, keeping it local, keeping it personal — i believe this is where radical change lives.
