Finding Compassion
Arts On Site | May 9th

Featuring new work by @sloe_n
‘COLLARBONE’ supporting @artstartorg

From the birth of a breath, Taking Time and Space to have a conversation. Breath in time gave sound, and in space movement.

Understanding what they have in common, lingering. Finding their differences, wondering.

Through its symbolism, this piece will explore wordless interactions, for art is an opportunity to understand each other.

Evie & Santina for @abronsartcenter
May 9 | 6:30 & 8:30

We would like to support the Abrons Arts Center, located on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Abrons has largely supported our process as the primary space we rehearse in, accessible to us through affordable subsidized rental rates. Abrons supports artists of diverse cultural backgrounds at all career stages, through all stages of creating work. This support comes in the form of rehearsal space, residencies, performance venue, and gallery exhibitions. Abrons Arts Center is a vital arts institution that deserves our support to ensure that they can continue to provide artists with the tools they need to succeed.

It means a lot to me to support an organization that invests in young artists. Art Start creates an open-door environment that invites voices to speak for themselves in any form; they understand how art can be a means to express what words can’t. Life brings you experiences, and while we do our best to understand and heal when it’s necessary, creativity can be a companion along the way.

I chose Asiyah Women Center, a center for BIPOC women who experience domestic violence. As a survivor of domestic violence, I admire the work Asiyah does to uplift and support women through mental health and housing services. The center advocates for women safety through community engagement that brings awareness to BIPOC and Muslim communities.

Black Girls Dance is a powerful organization dedicated to uplifting and supporting young Black girls in the dance community by providing scholarships, mentorship, and access to training opportunities. As a dancer myself, it means so much to see a space that prioritizes representation, equity, and celebration of Black artists. It represents opportunity, visibility, and the reminder that every young dancer deserves to feel seen, supported, and valued.

As a company rooted in queer identity and community, we are dedicated to amplifying intersectional identities and spreading awareness to the difficulties we experience. We are excited to be donating to “The Trevor Project” through Finding Compassion; donations will go towards supporting the mental health of LGBTQ+ youth communities.

The work we are premiering is rooted in longing and grieving; feelings that are unfortunately, well known in the queer community. Through this work, we hope to offer solace and comfort along the grief spectrum.
