The Beehive Collective
2024-08-04 19:00 - 22:00
The Beehive Design Collective is a wildly motivated, all-volunteer, activist arts collective dedicated to “cross-pollinating the grassroots” by creating collaborative, anti-copyright images for use as educational and organizing tools. Working as word-to-image translators of complex global stories informed by affected communities, the Beehive has launched graphics campaigns that have had major impacts in social and environmental movements worldwide.
Active for a quarter-century, the beed have distributed over a quarter million copies of their prints, and have been invited to present their work, tour, and give lectures at conferences, festivals, galleries, museums, community centres and universities on every continent. Their MesoAmerica Resiste graphic took 23 members of the collective over 9 years to complete, and they’ve recently published a rhyming storybook to complement their large mural artwork entitled “The True Cost of Coal”

About THE INDIGEQUEER TOUR
The INDIGEQUEER Party has been based in Seattle, WA for the past 2 years, hosted and founded by Howie Echo-Hawk (@howieechohawk) (AKA the evening star; founder of Indigenize Productions) After the passing of Nex Benedict, Howie realized that it was time to take INDIGEQUEER on the road. As a former closeted trans native kid in rural Alaska, Howie knows what it is like to feel you have no community, and she hopes to take INDIGEQUEER anywhere it is needed.
the evening star was born in the INDIGEQUEER parties, as she realized that there was a serious lack of Queer Native dance music, and so the first single “DONT LET THEM COLONIZE THAT PUSSY” was birthed, as well as “CUM AND GET UR LANDBACK” and “PADDLE TOGETHER.” the evening star cant wait to perform for you, and dj all the songs you forgot you wanted to hear, from reggaton and dembow to hip hop, rnb, and house.
Ticket Prices:
$10 BIPOC
$12 General Admission
$15 I feel bad about living on stolen land

Mimouna in the Desert
2024-04-30 18:30 - 21:00
Mimouna is an ancestral moroccan/n.african celebration of jewish and muslim relationships that happens on the last night of passover. Mimouna is Not zionist by definition, and lifts up stories of arab jews living in shared community with their muslim neighbors. the week before passover, moroccan jews would “sell” their chametz (flour/bread) to their muslim neighbors. on the last night, jewish homes would open for celebration, and muslim neighbors would be the first to bring over flour and other baked goods. throughout the year muslims and jews shared community, social lives, and economies. Mimouna was a time to stay up eating, dancing, and celebrating a new year for their relationships. “I’ve never heard of an arab jew, who are they?” al-yahud al-arab arab jews are what we sound like: jews in diaspora from arab countries whose judaism is shaped and guided by our arab culture. arab jews have historic relationships with palestine and have had their identities erased and often co-opted by zionism -an ideology that never included us. Mimouna is an opportunity for reclamation and celebration learn more here!
