We’ve asked you a while back what skateboarding means to you. We’ve gotten many different quotes like skateboarding is “delicious self-expression” or “queer joy” – as well as this one: “Skateboarding is taking up space where you’re not given any”.
This stuck with us. As women and queers, skateboarding especially challenges us to do this! That’s why we’ve organised a community event, where we dive into the topic of taking up space by building confidence. And what better way to do it then learn new skills from each other and express ourselves through art!
Heads-up: This is an all afternoon activity + limited spots!!!

Gender and clothing upcycling workshop – by Marijn Abel @AbelMarijn is a social tailor with a central focus on gender joy. As a trans man, he has spent a lot of time exploring how he can feel like himself in his clothing, and he has started doing the same for others.
In his workshop, you will explore what gender means to you and how you can use clothing to empower yourself.
You will do this by talking together with the group about society, identity, and fashion, while creating a new item from old pieces of clothing. 
Please bring 2-3 pieces of old clothing with you which can be transformed. No experience needed.
Pimp your decks and helmets – by us Get creative and make your skatedeck or helmet truly your own! You’ll paint, decorate and personalise your deck or helmet, creating a unique design that reflects your style and personality.
