The Trans Pride Festival supported by Senate Berlin for two consecutive years is an inclusive and vibrant series of ballroom events that aim to celebrate the art of the ballroom community while promoting the visibility and empowerment of trans people through panel talks and workshops.
Originating from the Afro and Latin-American trans, drag, and LGBTQIA* community of the 60s and 70s in New York, the ballroom scene where »The Under the Sea After Math Kiki Ball« is held serves as a vital cultural and community hub. Embraced particularly by BIPOC and queer individuals, ballroom offers a sanctuary where creativity and self-expression thrive. It acts as a platform for queer individuals to authentically showcase their true selves, fostering a space where diversity and individuality are celebrated.
Water is a vital element for human existence, playing a role not just biologically but also socially. Throughout history, civilizations have thrived on the shores of water. However, it’s fascinating to note that 90% of the oceans remain uncharted, holding countless mysteries in their depths. Mythical beings like krakens, mermaids, and hydras mingle with real-life creatures such as jellyfish, whales, and fish, creating a mesmerizing underwater world beyond our sight. Delve into the depths of the seven seas and let the enigmatic creatures within inspire you. Shades of blue and green must be present in your effects. Be water.
