Our shapeshifting practices have been Medicine since time immemorial. On Aug 15th at 8pm, we gather 2S42S to honour forms of virtual touch, sex magic, pixelled movement, body work through the healing resonance of pole – drag – burlesque – dance – tone mixing + wonderwork. We will share in strength the brilliance, the potency and the care that is braided through our indigiqueer web of radical love sustained in the quantum. Open to 2Spirit kin, indigiqueer warriors, our community’s changing ones, gender bending cuzzins, trans loves, non-binary shapeshifters, LGBTTQQIA+ folx, heart-centered indigiquestioners + our extended BIPOC dear ones.
