Queer Ecologies at Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park
An artist residency exploring how we live, grow, love, make kin and stand in allyship with the ecologies we are a part of. We’re telling new stories about nature and our connection to it, empowering interspecies collaborations, and honouring the inherently queer patterns and relations found throughout nature. From June—September 2021 we are offering gatherings around a campfire, workshops, performances, and—for the finale—a Microbe Disco where you can dance with the smallest members of the Cemetery Park’s ecosystem! People of all genders and sexual orientations are welcome, with a particular welcome for queer, trans, sick, disabled and Queer, Trans, Intersex, Black folks, and people of colour (QTIBPOC) folks. All events are ticketed - some are free, and some on a sliding scale with free tickets available. To book, please go to: http://tiny.cc/queerecologies

Ceramics from the Future
Saturday 4 th July, 1-5pm, free but ticketed
Join writer Linden K McMahon and ceramicist Nissa Nishikawa
for a workshop combining poetry, pottery, and speculative fiction.
Create clay pots inscribed with messages from the future - imagining
the people who we will become ancestors to, and what
they might want to say to us. We’ll guide you through writing
and ceramics activities to imagine better futures together! The
pots will become part of The Clay in Us, an immersive storytelling
walk and installation. Everyone who attends the workshop will
get a free ticket to the performance, and will be able to take
their pot home after the final show. Meet at the Soanes Centre.
Please wear clothes you don’t mind getting clay on!
