The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.

“Hidden in the hands an alluvial transcription of reach and embrace. The final flickers of the body’s expression, caress and touch.” – boychild
Dave will lead a session created for teenagers and designed to stimulate a supportive environment for artistic exploration through music improvisation.

A performance by Storyboard P – one of the greatest Afrofuturist dancers on the planet.
