Gathering Act is an intentional community building space to uplift social change and support a strong experimental performance community in Baltimore. We are coming together around the shared values of advocating for social and environmental change and the power of art to connect people.
MC’d and produced by Red Rae and Theresa Columbus, with featured acts by Didi Cook-Creek (poetry) and Francisco Benavides (performance), presentation “How to Start a Union,” and songs by John Eaton. Come early to sign up for the Open Mic. This event will have live ASL interpretation provided by Renuka Purimetla and team.
We welcome performers regardless of gender expression or identity, sex assigned at birth, sexual orientation, race, age, religious identity, political affiliation, ability, class, or immigration status. We do not tolerate racism, transphobia/homophobia, sexism, ableism, ageism, classism or Zionism in this space.
