Join Voluminous Arts for T4Tuesdays at our new location ~Mad Tropical, 236 Troutman St. Brooklyn, NY, co-hosted by Club Wonderland and Rabbit Hole T4T. At this month's event we've got puzzles in the middle room, a panel of trans hair stylists, and HOT DJ sets.
Before the party gets revved up, come meet us at open office hours starting at 6 where you can learn about the work our community is doing and get involved. Office hours is also a great time to co-work and/or organize with fellow trans people. Office hours is followed by skill shares, workshops, and activities at 8 where you can make friends, meet people and get ready to dance to the DJs of the expanding Voluminous Arts community.
For April's edition of T4Tuesdays we will have a panel of three trans people working in hair styling at 8pm! Our panelists Alanis Castaño (Mutiny), Birdie (1-900-Bleach Me), and Jupiterian Robles will talk about their work and their experiences of doing hair as a trans person.
At 9pm we move into the rhythmic portion of our programming with ass throwing DJ sets from Salem X, Malice of Wonderland, and resident Sodomahigomorra.
All night we'll have jigsaw puzzles in the middle room for a lower stimulus alternative to the dance floor. It's also a v cute way to meet people if you're shy.
Toolbox Collective will be joining us all night to distribute free harm reduction and safer sex supplies as well as KN95 masks.
