FATSABBATS
FATSABBATS originated in December 2019 as a self-managed establishment in the center of Brussels.
In 2022, it undergoes a transformation, becoming a nomadic entity and proudly positioning itself as a cultural, supportive, and inclusive space initiated and managed BY and FOR LGBTQIA+ persons of color communities.
Who’s involved in it?
We are a collective of women and non-binary individuals, each with unique ethnic backgrounds, and our ages range from 20 to 40. Among us, we have students, artists, and job-seekers.
What’s your origin story and your motivation?
Cultural development and solidarity lie at the core of FATSABBATS's project, aiming to provide VISIBILITY and a VOICE to those who may not necessarily find it within traditional or mainstream institutions.
FATSABBATS operates based on its unique principles and establishes a mutual support network, harnessing the diverse expertise within our community. We strive to create solutions by tapping into both formal and informal KNOWLEDGE and skill sets.
FATSABBATS exchanges practices, puts forth proposals, and discovers resources rooted in collective wisdom. Throughout the years, FATSABBATS has consistently pursued its missions, evolving by creating spaces, occasions, landmarks, havens, and valuable resources.
Could you describe the accessibility of your space?
It depends on the place we are invited to, but we ensure it is accessible to people with disabilities.
Where can we find you virtually and/or physically?
