Organizer’s description
On Friday, October 2, Tarek Kadan held the room at Snakecharmer 8, guiding us through movement with the kind of presence that turns a dance floor into something sacred. The next night, Tarek was seriously burned in an accident. They're stable now at Sunnybrook's burn unit, but the road back may be long. So we're doing what this community does best. We gather, we move, we lift each other up. One night, one dance floor, every dollar going straight to Tarek's recovery fund. $10 minimum, pay what you can, give what moves you. For this one night everyone contributes, Pluto members included, and Pluto is donating its usual venue share. Come dance for someone who has danced for all of us. Can't make it on the night? Choose the Supporter ticket at checkout. Every dollar goes straight to Tarek's recovery fund, whether you're on the dance floor or not. Schedule: 6:30pm- Doors 6:45 - Opening set by Dan (DJ Used) & Movement Activation by Saēna 7:45 - Opening Circle 8:00 - Cacaoboy b2b Snakecharmer 10:00 - Soundbath by Elva Plus: Chai by Chaicore (Farid), a video booth by Ruz (ruztermedia.com) to record your message of love and support for Tarek, and more!
