An invitation to join us for six sessions of listening, music and sound-making, with a focus on how these practices could holistically support us to stay well together: mentally, physically, politically, and spiritually. 

The sessions will involve: singing and vocalising together, sound-walking, creating soundscapes, improvising, practising deep listening, and creating somatic sound maps, with discussion throughout.

A series of workshops led by Dunya Kalantery, trans+ and queer teenagers living in Bexley and Thamesmead will explore print-making and DIY publishing. Participants will learn how to use a risograph printer, experiment with new creative skills, exploring DIY print culture and distribution.

This project is a collaboration between QUEERCIRCLE and TACO! Print Studio.

A theatrical and philosophical exploration of energy, movement, and friction. Building on Eleni Stecopoulos 'Dreaming in the Fault Zone: a poetics of healing' we will investigate, explore, and play around the themes of skill and expectations of doing well, being well, and connecting well. In the workshop we will question how collective work and personal wellbeing go together and what the push and pull between the two is. Plus cats.

This creative collage workshop will provide space to reflect on our inherited and learnt masculinities, with the aims to reimagining masculinity which aligns with our desired queer futures.

Starting with a guided discussion, we will reflect on the masculinities we may have learnt as a tool to ‘pass’, as a form of safety, as a byproduct of cisheteronormativity. We will use collage and Dada poetry to collectively reimagine how we can map our own pathways to masculinities which forgo the harms of cis-replication, and instead enable queer futures.

Join artists Jacob V. Joyce to explore our experiences of cruising, especially those of women, trans and disabled folk (not only cis gendered able bodied men). This informal sharing space will offer everyone a chance to listen and tell their own stories, with readings of work by the author, Patrick Califia, amongst others.

A relaxed and open workshop exploring voices, rivers, mountains, and the ways they flow in and out of each other. Using improvisation and our imaginations, we will explore how our voices can carry and share stories of different landscapes, bodies of water, and ways of relating across histories and seas. Together, we will create an embodied soundscape that weaves our stories, dreams, and lands into a joy-led refusal to collapse ourselves into the borders of colonial cartographies.
