✿ Jussara ✿ is a multidisciplinary Gloucester based artist with a focus on afro-queer surrealist art & performance. Her work is full of colour, patterns and life as it blooms in many forms. From handmade jewellery, Zines and print, up-cycled fashion or more
Jussara's current projects include Muses of Glos, a Gloucester based QPOC performance collective; Drag Performances including Knob Ross, a satirical Bob Ross themed Burlesque highlighting the injustice of Bob Ross Inc. and the zine series, Adventures of Ducky, a first person (duck) guide to raves, festivals, expression and safe partying!
✿ SLY DOG ✿ @slydogthedragking
Sly will metamorphosize to whoever you want him to be, and he has found just the guy for you. A champion for pigeons worldwide, Sly is determined to share their love for birds with whoever will give him attention. Shameless as he is, Sly Dog isn’t afraid to bare their soul on stage, (he probably should be).
✿ Georgia Quality Kent ✿
@georgia_quality_kent
Her puppet is complicit, in these tales of the illicit. Puppet duets from fishponds.
✿ Liquid library ✿ is a Bristol based avant-garde music collective.
Releasing music in a baffling array of physical formats as well as putting on regular gigs showcasing the best in the no-audience underground
All sorts of sounds found within. Drone/noise/crackle/hiss/flutter/shine.
✿ Pink Pony Val ✿ The strongest and most elegant pole ballerina cutie with a brand new dance to show you!
✿ Nohe ✿ is a Latin genre fluid DJ based in Bristol. You’ll be taken on a journey of the Latin Caribbean and afro diaspora, with bangers from start to finish celebrating underground & queer Latin artists as well as the king of sad boi reggaeton Bad Bunny himself.
✿ Hen Hari (fka Candy Hurtzz) ✿
Local cutie that has known me (Gary) many years and we have crossed paths many a time on the dancefloor, I can't wait for it to happen again, I don't know what they are going to play.
✿ Beanpig Puppets ✿
Shiny fabric creatures crossing the threshold back and forth accessing messages from the object realm. Obscure puppetry collective and living object community and my collegues. Absolute nightmare to manage.
Bristol Puppet cabaret, puppet show & goblin fest <3
