Hosted by three Deaf hosts and a DJ, this interactive dance event celebrates connection, joy, and the power of dance rituals.
In a playful interrogation of who belongs in dance rave spaces, Mini SPIN honours the intersection of Deaf culture, dance, and music. No dance experience required, Deaf/HoH/CODA and hearing children welcome. Dance raves are for everyone!
