Radical Rhizomes is the ONLY regular social programme for QTIBPoC in Brighton & Hove, creating spaces for connection and creativity.

With your help, we can grow and thrive.

Support us in The Big Give: donate.biggive.org/campaign/a05...

#QTIBPoC #RadicalRhizomes #TheBigGive
A Black performer is in the middle of voguing; they are looking slightly off camera with their chin raised, one arm extended in front of them and one arm folded at the elbow so their hand rests on their shoulder. They have dark curly hair that seems to be moving along with their dance, as it curls away from their head. In the background, other dancers are blurry and out of focus. Overlaid on the image are two triangles, one pink and one blue. Parts of the dancers - their arms and head - cover the triangles, whereas the rest of their body sits underneath them. In the top left corner is the logo for Radical Rhizomes. In the bottom left corner are the logos for Arts for Impacts/The Big Give and Marlborough Productions "A DJ leans over their decks, smilling as if in the middle of a performance. They are Black, with a short afro. Around them is music tech equipment, as they are in the middle of a set. The image is overlaid with a slight purple blur. Above the performer is overlaid a purple box with white writing inside. The writing reads: “Radical Rhizomes is an immensely valuable and precious resource for QTIPOCs in Brighton. It's so rare to see spaces run exclusively by and for people of colour, and queer POC spaces are rarer still.” - RR attendee At the bottom of the image are the logos for Marlborough Productions, Radical Rhizomes and Arts for Impact/The Big Give" "A group of people pose together around a framed certificate that one person near the front is holding. An intersectional pride flag hangs on the wall behind them. The image is overlaid with a slight purple blur. Over the faces of the group is a purple box with white writing inside. The writing reads: “If Rhizomes didn't exist in Brighton and Hove so many of us would be left feeling unconnected and lonely. So many relationships have been nourished through Rhizomes events for me. The opportunity to do something wholesome, and eat something wholesome, in a wholesome atmosphere with other Black and brown queers helps me to feel more whole.” - RR attendee At the bottom of the image are the logos for Marlborough Productions, Radical Rhizomes and Arts for Impact/The Big Give"
