With a women-led curatorial team and strong representation from youth and people with disabilities, this festival is all about empowerment and social change. From school playgrounds to street corners, art will literally be everywhere. Join us in reimagining spaces and connecting diverse rural communities!” My Body My Space.

This physical workshop focuses on listening to and re-appropriating the environment, reclaiming autonomy, expanding movement vocabulary, and falling with Esprit Concrete inspirations.
Krump: Is life. This expressive dance stems from hip-hop, and began as a refuge for those forgotten by society in LA in the 2000s.
Parkour: Originates from France’s l’art du deplacement by Yamakasi in the 1980s.
