Perfect Flower workshop
Calling LGBTQIA+ young people for Perfect Flower workshop.
This weekend workshop for LGBTQI+ young people aged 14–21, is an invitation to start conversations and create costumes from recycled cardboard and non-toxic spray paint. The costumes you create will form part of a larger project in 2027 for Fest en Fest – YOUTH, a festival by and for young people, run by H2DANCE.
At our Perfect Flower workshop you will:
- Collaborate in an immersive weekend of workshops that play with identity, challenge gender norms, and encourage self-expression
- Build a supportive network of queer young people
- Explore sustainability through a queer ecological* lens.
- Be a part of the creative festival-making team for Fest-en-Fest Youth, having your say
- Learn from established artists and festival makers
- Take part in Fest-en-Fest 2026 at The Dance Space, where you will meet the artists, watch the work and join the team behind the scenes
Participants are also invited to attend Fest en Fest 2026 at South East Dance on 21–22 March to experience the festival, meet artists, and learn about festival-making.
Perfect Flower is a project by architect Ulrike Steven and choreographer Heidi Rustgaard of what-if: projects.

*Queer ecology challenges norms of sexuality, gender and biology, emphasising the interconnectedness of humans, plants and animals, positioning us alongside plant life rather than above it.
