Following the run of Silence, the theme of this edition of Spoken Space is Partition, which is the focus of our curated programme for the evening. We encourage open mic participants to share pieces and creative responses related to this theme, although this isn’t a requirement to take part.
Dhaaga| A Charity Dance Class
Dhaaga| A Charity Dance Class
I am heartbroken to see the effects of the floods in Pakistan. Having lived a good chunk of my life in Multan and Lahore, I wanted to do something more than just having donated. Having also a lot of family and friends there, this touches close to my heart. I reached out to some friends and advisors on what could I do more of and a charity event came to mind. All of the proceeds from the class will be donated straight to the DEC Pakistan Flood Appeal. They are a great charity which bring together 15 leading UK aid charities to raise funds quickly and efficiently at times of crisis overseas.
I would also urge you to donate regardless if unable to attend. As of now, the class is just for in person. However, I will be recording the class and you can attend Online with the recorded link. Simply pop a note or drop me a message on my instagram and I can arrange that. (IG @raimuitfum)
I want to massively thank Danceworks for supporting me in this and my close circle of friends and advisors.
