Riposte is a queer art-rave aiming to facilitate connections between strangers, to create a club night where you can have good chats, make memories and discover amazing artists. This is a large scale event on 4 floors, 8 rooms (2 dancefloors, 1 playroom, 1 chill room, 1 performance room, 2 bars). It is mainly attended by alternative queer people with a majority of gender non-confirming people but strong allies are welcome 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
This is a RAVE, be ready to SWEAT. We also have performances, installations & more happening all over.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING TO CREATE:
We want to create a space where you can dance all night on quality techno. A space where you can have a good time sober. A space where minorities are empowered. A space where you can have a lot of fun without needing to spend money if you are in a hard time. We want to curate a space where meeting new people is easy. A sex-positive space with dedicated spaces to get sexy, with a strong culture of consent and respect. A space where we recognise that we are all on the same level, just on different paths of life, that we all have something to teach each other and where people are eager to learn.
We want to strengthen London queer community and we honour all the amazing people that did events before us and allowed us to be here and activists that fought for our rights.
OPEN CALL:
For that, we employ at every event a very large number of artists. At least:
15 visual artists - 15 performers - 16 Djs - 10 volunteers - 30 staff 🎨🎭
So if you want to be part of our next event, 24th of March 2023, 9pm-6am at Electrowerkz please fill up the form below!
DEADLINE: 3rd of February, midnight.
Open call form: https://forms.gle/D4NMKqS6zYoN9Qnz9
Open to all kinds of submissions, if you think it can happen in a club night (hair, installations, …). We believe that art helps people to have something to chat about and bring people together. It also give something helps to have more than just very strong / loud music.
Preferably all from queer people & priority to QTIPOC but strong allies are welcomed to apply. The work doesn’t have to be about queerness. Share with your friends and check our IG @riposte.london to understand the kind of events we put on ❤️
