Our Mission

We Are Collective’s mission is to create a unique and uplifting movement space for the queer community at-large through the shared practices of performance, community events, and educational opportunities.

We Are Collective’s vision is to create a foundation of resources and connections to radically support queer movement artists while being appropriately sustainable physically, mentally, and monetarily within the marginalized communities that are present within it.

Whether you’re a professional looking for inspiration, a fresh groover hoping to find new and exciting experiences, or if you’re simply interested in exploring the dance world, We Are Collective has something for you.

Our main belief is that we are a common collective of dancers, viewers, performers, writers, & experiencers that need space to explore, innovate, & create.
