Voirelia Hub is a non-profit. All funds go directly to supporting operational costs of the hub, wages for professional artists who work with our non-profit hub, helping Vancouver-area artists to keep creating meaning-making art for the community. As other performing arts organizations, we have been impacted significantly by COVID-19 changes as well as by a recent major flood in the Voirelia headquarters/studio space.
While we work on adapting to the pandemic-related challenges, we are and always have been committed to inclusive, mutually supportive, and respectful work environment. We strive to improve ourselves in this continuously and will continue to be committed to that. The model for our hub is based on a feminist ethic of care that puts empathy and healthy relationships first first and recognizes intersectionality in the experiences of people from marginalized groups who face systemic discrimination regarding their ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, physical ability, or other aspects of their identity. From the very beginning, we created Voirelia in the hopes of being a safe, mutually supportive, non-competitive space for diverse, like-minded artists to create performance with meaning. If our dance class offerings are helpful for you, but you are not able to donate, or your donations are currently going to support anti-racist and anti-oppression work that many excellent organizations are doing right now, just come to class and let it be a place of community, connection, and rejuvenation for you. If you are not able to give anything, please do not worry - your presence already means a lot.
