thetinyhoboart: I was commissioned to do a piece to promote a Kickstarter campaign for Irreverent Dance, a gender nuetral, LGBTQ friendly, body positive dance studio hoping to set up shop in the UK. Even though I’ve never been there, I feel really close to this project because what they’re working towards is nothing short of incredible, and I want to see it become a reality. Here are a few AMAZING reasons you should check out their project: About them: In many ways, Irreverent Dance isn’t really about dance at all. It’s about individuals reconnecting with their bodies; sticking two fingers up to society’s prejudices about gender behaviour, beauty, and identity; and gathering our messy, hard to define, WIP-selves in a space where that imperfection is not only tolerated, but celebrated. -They are the FIRST gender-nuetral dance studio in Europe. -One of the main reasons they’re doing what they do: Wheelchair accessible, gender-neutral dance spaces don’t exist. Not only does this make finding venues to teach in an exercise in over-compromise but we think this is fundamentally wrong. We’d like to show that they can exist, should exist, and in a way that is profitable and well attended. I’m really honored that I was able to work on this project, and I’d love if you guys could spread the word, reblog, and share this link with anyone who might be interested in donating to the cause and seeing this become a beautiful reality. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1453507669/europes-first-gender-neutral-community-dance-studi -- source link
