About

A chance for queer folks of all identities and experiences to connect through dance. Queer Dance Workshops are a chance for queer folks of all identities and experiences to connect through dance. Featuring a rotating roster of teachers and dance styles, these workshops are a time to simply dance around joyfully with other queer people. These special workshops will be held outside near Egleston Square in Jamaica Plain. Exact location details will be sent to registrants. Some parking is available. It is about a 10 minute walk from Stony Brook on the Orange Line and near bus stops for busses 42, 22, 44, and 29. Queer Dance Workshops offers $10 stipends for participants to travel to and from the in-person outdoor workshops. This is intended to alleviate some financial pressure for those who might not otherwise be able to enjoy the workshops. If a stipend would make your workshop experience more doable or enjoyable, click the “travel stipend” option in the RSVP form. Learn more about how travel stipends work here. There is a question about access needs in registration. In particular, if you need ASL interpretation please note it in your rsvp or email me at jotrolldance@gmail.com as it is often easier to get interpretation with a confirmed need. Unfortunately, I will need at least a week's notice to ensure interpretation. Workshops are free, but please consider donating (no more than $20) to help pay our wonderful teachers. Workshops are funded in part by the Massachusetts Culture Council's Creative Experiences grant. Thank you!
