About the Pleiades Series:
Pleiades is a monthly performance series dedicated to celebrating femme, trans, and nonbinary artists. With a dual mission to amplify the visibility of these performers and foster connections among improvisers from diverse backgrounds, Pleiades creates a welcoming and dynamic space for artistic exploration and collaboration.
Each event begins with curated performances that reflect a wide spectrum of genres and styles, encompassing sound art, punk, improvisation, noise, and more. The second half of the evening is devoted to a free improvisation jam session, open to all femme, trans, nonbinary, and genderfluid performers—including musicians, movers, poets, spoken word artists, and other creatives.
By bringing together artists from varied traditions and practices, Pleiades embodies a spirit of inclusivity and creative exchange that strengthens and uplifts the community.
