The Vulcana projet is above all things about shared values and about a commune
ambition : raising awareness on art and culture around topics such as intersectionnal
feminism, sexual and mental health, non-binarity, masculinities, decolonialism and
more...
For now, Vulcana is working from shared offices in Brussels but our goal is to have our
own place ! Thanks to a future crowdfunding and to our atists residencies, we hope to be
able to finance our project in 2022 !
As in today, we are 10 very motivated people, all part of the artistic and/or activist scene from
Belgium and France. Our team is exclusively composed by women and non-binary people (as in
cis-women and/or queer people).
The Vulcana adventure started in March 2021. The first person who though about this project was
Laurent Isnard but all of us are bound by the same burning passion : promote queer and inclusive art
in Brussels !
Our best memory so far would be the Queer Market that we organized on December 2021. There
were 17 great queer artists present (drawings, tattoos, plastic, textil, jewelry, and more), some
performances (dancing, singing, dragqueening, boxing) and a big raffle at the end. Appromaximetly
600 people came to our event this day, between 2pm and 8pm. It was a real success and a very
joyful day !
Our favorite spots in Brussels are the ones who share the same values of we do. So, there is Naast
Monique in Anderlecht, The Crazy Circle bar in Ixelles, more recently the Agenda bar downtown.
We also like to go to (and to collaborate with) the Allee du Kaai along the canal and to the Vallée
in Molenbeek.
