LAND/CULTURAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENTWe would like to acknowledge that we are coming together to celebrate on the unceded territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil- Waututh) Nations. As an organization that is founded by non Black and Latinx people we acknowledge our ongoing need to question and reflect on how we navigate practicing our ballroom scene here in Vancouver, BC. We know we do not have all the answers and are always looking to be better. We are always seeking and open to how we can better support the Queer/Trans Black and Brown folks that founded the culture we love and share through VVJ. Creating safe space has always been at the heart of ballroom culture and we hope that this event can be a safe space for everybody to enjoy. Oppressive attitudes and behaviours including but not limited to misogyny, transphobia, racism, fat phobia, ableism, and general bigotry are not welcome here. Racism, Anti-Blackness, homophobia, transphobia and sexism are ongoing battles that are being experienced in America, Canada and the rest of the world. We all have a lot of work to do in the ongoing fight for equality and have compiled a list of resources to help you support, donate, educate and take action to help you wherever you may be in your continued unlearning/relearning process. If there are ways VVJ can better create an inclusive and safe space please do inform us by e-mail at info@vanvoguejam.com so that we may listen to your input and improve on this for future events. A BALLAn event that hosts a series of competitive categories, each with their own focus. Having been birthed in NYC by communities of Queer Black and Latinex people out of a need for safe nightlife spaces due to the discrimination they faced, balls are typically centred around creating safe space for LGBTQIA2+ POC. Spectators, competitors, and judges, come together to celebrate people within their communities and compete against each other in different categories. Some of the most popular categories are Vogue Performance, Sex Siren, Hands, Runway, Bazaar, and Face. Each of these categories have specific requirements, and competitors are judged by a panel on how well they accomplish them. Before competing against others, category participants are required to “walk” one by one to receive full approval from all judges, known as ‘receiving your 10s’. Competitors who make their 10s battle one on one against each other to impress the judges until there is one winner. HISTORYBallroom culture, drag ball culture, the house-ballroom community, and similar terms describe an underground queer subculture in which people walk (i.e., compete), perform, dance, lip-sync, and model in different categories, which are designed to simultaneously epitomize and satirize gender constructs, occupations, and social classes, while also offering an escape from reality. Category participants are required to “walk” one by one to receive full approval from all judges, known as ‘receiving your 10s’. Competitors are judged on their abilities, “effect” (costumes, appearance, theatrics, presentation), and perceived “realness” (embodied and/or visual believability, authenticity). Those who make their 10s battle one on one against each other for trophies, prizes, and glory. Ballroom culture emerged in the late 1960s in New York City, birthed by the Black and Latinx LGBTQ2S+ community who were excluded from the drag pageant world of white America. The development of the Ballroom scene created safe and inclusive spaces for these communities to explore and experience life styles from which they were excluded due to systemic oppression. Vogue is a freestyle competitive dance form that utilizes 5 key elements in an improvised battle with other competitors. Currently (although open to interpretation within various vogue communities), the five popular elements of Vogue Performance are catwalk, hands, duckwalk, spins and dips, and floor performance. “For decades, ballroom, ball or house culture has been a way for queer Blacks and Latinos to live their best lives – that is, to figure out how to respond to a society that devalued their lives and attempted to erase their presence. Through elaborate performances incorporating and commenting on race, class and gender, the ball community has historically reflected the American Dream and one’s exclusion from it.” - Les Fabian Brathwaith (Quote from Rolling Stones).

This workshop will introduce artists to some of the most recent research, technology and best practices designed to promote peak performance within their creative practice by achieving the flow state. This idea of “peak performance” looks different across a range of disciplines, but in this setting we will be addressing ways to tackle artist’s block and enable free expression that can be applied to any media or individual. Led by former Artspace Resident, Anna Payne, alongside Neurofeedback Instructor, Marty Previtte, this workshop aims to provide a safe space for artists to better their mental connection to their work and studio practice as a whole. As a professional artist, Anna is concerned with taking care to make relevant and responsive work that is authentic and understands the highs and lows that creative work can bring. This workshop aims to impart some of her strategies and beliefs on how to grapple with this through the creation of self-fulfilling art, while also holding space for others to access and discuss their creative potential. Participants will learn about the flow state and how to recognize it through several interventions designed by neuroscientists to prepare the brain for work, followed by a creative activity designed to encourage this mental process. If you are currently struggling to finish a piece that can be brought to the workshop, we encourage you to bring this piece and any desired supplies to discuss and progress through it. Otherwise, we will have supplies for you to create an abstract self portrait, or begin a new work entirely while applying your newfound knowledge of flo state. Rather than focus on creating a specific piece for you to take home, we hope to explore and introduce new ideas and practices for you to take back to any creative space. This workshop is ideal for artists looking to overcome artist’s block or to explore new methods of creative thinking. Instructor: Anna Payne Are you an Artspace member?
