SoulPlay Queer Connect: Pronounce Yourself!

SoulPlay & GenreFluid is excited to offer Queer Connect: Into the Closet! 

We are excited to announce that we have a new collaboration just for you - SoulPlay is combining forces with Genrefluid!

A safe space where queerness will be honored, celebrated, and expressed with the heart and spirit of SoulPlay with the wompy, wubby, dirty, deep bass that both Maya and K-Luh are notorious for.

This space will celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community and provide a safe space to express without the pressures of gender roles, patriarchy, and conformity. Our goal is to create an environment that encourages everyone to be their most authentic selves, at a time when so many are trying to suppress this right.

We are offering several activities designed to help attendees explore their identities and build meaningful connections with others:

• An opening connection workshop to help you drop in with others as your true and most fullest self
• A clothing swap so that you can try on new styles
• A 3-hour wompy dance journey to help you get your groove on
• plus more surprises!

MORE ABOUT THE CLOTHING SWAP:

The act of coming out of the closet often feels scary and vulnerable. But closets can also be safe places where one can explore their identity in gender, sexuality, and beyond.

Choosing to bring parts of oneself out of the closet is an act of radical power, and can give us the freedom to explore and express our love more fiercely.

We’re encouraging folks to explore their gender expression by participating in an all-gender clothing swap in the back room throughout the night. Step into our collective closets and let your curiosity run wild.

Please use your discernment! Bring your most delectable outfits.

MORE ABOUT THE CONNECTION WORKSHOP:

Spark your Soul with Safe, Silly & Intentional Connections facilitated by the fabulous Trish Wright.

Explore your inner worlds and get up close & intimate with your true nature while building safe, supportive bonds. Dive deep into your heart & embrace the possibility of creating courageous connections.

We believe in acceptance, curiosity, intimacy, playfulness, consent, and authenticity at SoulPlay. These values form the foundation of our event philosophy and guide us as we create events that bring people together in meaningful ways. We welcome all interactions —short or long— at our events to be based on these values so that each person can feel supported and free to express themselves without judgment or fear.

We aim to break down barriers between members of the LGBTQIA+ community while also promoting self-love and connection with others. By bringing your wildest expression of self forward in an environment built on acceptance and understanding from one another, we can craft an atmosphere where everyone feels heard, seen, and accepted — precisely for who they are. So let's expand beyond what we think is possible- individually or collectively!

* Tickets will be available at the door as long as the event doesn't sell out before then.

* If you need help getting with us or want to contribute in some way, reach out to info@soulplayfestival.com and we will share ways that can happen. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
