Waterworks: stories on queer grief.

Underneath the rainbow flag, I fell in love with a girl for the very first time. And I never looked back. Now I live with my girl and—of course—cat, Samantha, in this wonderful free city. I’m a storyteller and writer. I've organized gay-pride boats and won LGBT awards. But most of all I know and love my pink city by heart, and I would love to show you around and share personal & historic stories, fun & facts about queer Amsterdam. XO Sanne.

Waterworks: stories on queer grief. ~ How do we want to be held in our queer grief? ~ How can we support one another in these impossible times? ~ Workshop + shared vegan/gf Ethiopian dinner (all together 15,- supported places available) On the 28th of June, remembrance day of the Stonewall Riots in New York City (1969), join us at Stichting Tugela85 for an evening filled with heartfelt narratives and shared experiences. This event is a safe space for the queer community to explore the complexities of grief and loss. Through storytelling and conversation, we aim to foster connection and healing among individuals who have faced unique challenges. Join us for an evening of reflection and support as we navigate the waters of grief together. The evening will be hosted and held by Rajni Shah &amp; Sanne Pols: ~ Rajni Shah (they, them) is a writer, a researcher, and a performance maker. They identify as queer, quiet, trans non-binary, and a feminist killjoy. In 2021, they published Experiments in Listening, a book which also exists as a series of five print-at-home zines. Rajni works one day a week as a researcher and Head Heart of the THIRD programme at the Academy for Theatre and Dance in Amsterdam. They think and write about listening and gathering as creative and political acts, and how listening relates to embodied practices of grief. Rajni loves to learn about unlearning, to write songs, and to practise collective healing. ~Professional storyteller and public speaker Sanne Pols is the proud and founding mother of LGBTOUR_Amsterdam: a queer walk through the pink and historic heart of her beloved city of Amsterdam; sharing LGBTQI+ stories and experiences with queers and allies from all over the world. In addition, Sanne Pols is a well-experienced expert on training D &amp; I in the workplace, schools, and sports clubs, organising Pride boats, and winning LGBTQIA+ Awards with her workshops on diversity. The birth of Waterworks (see 2nd picture) In 2023, Sanne lost her lover and partner, Afina. And with that queer grief came into her life like a whirlwind. Together with the need for communal support. Waterworks was born from necessity and had its first get-together in September 2023. Hope to see you there! All the love, Rajni &amp; Sanne. * The whole dinner will be vegan. * If you need it to be gluten-free, please send an email to hello@sannepols.nl. * If you need a supported ticket, please send an email to hello@sannepols.nl ~ Beautiful 'Waterworks' drawing is made by Rajni Shah ~ Waterworks is supported by the Bob Angelo Foundation.
