The wildly-popular FRESH MEAT FESTIVAL celebrates its first in-person festival in 3 years with an extravaganza of world premieres and an exciting new format.

This year, the festival expands to 6 performances featuring 3 different Programs … and the festival itself will take advantage of Z
Space’s 13,000 square feet, with artists performing all around the
building: on balconies, in the lobby, in quirky nooks and crannies, and
on the mainstage. This ‘site-specific’ format means that tickets will be
limited, to allow for smaller audiences to enjoy this ‘up-close and
personal’ intimate site-specific format. KN95 masks will be provided and
required.

The 2023 FRESH MEAT FESTIVAL features:

• 18 artists and ensembles, most performing world premieres!

• Artists from the Bay Area, Seattle, Austin, New York, Portland and more performing: Bomba dance and music, vogue performance, opera,
  Afro-Latin dance, aerial dance, stand-up comedy, live music and much
  more.

• World premieres commissioned especially for the festival, by 6 FRESH WORKS! commissioned artists: Andrea Horne, Charles Peoples III, Elena
  Rose, LOTUS BOY, NEVE, and Peekaboo.

Firelight invites artists from dance, storytelling, music and performance backgrounds together to collaborate and co-imagine a
performance evening, hosted by Velocity’s Curating Artist in Residence,
Alyza DelPan-Monley.

It is an opportunity for artists to share their work and perhaps stretch into less familiar forms and style collaborations. We begin the
process by asking the group of artists what they’re interested in and
what they care about and what they’d like to make art about, and then
from there they create a performance.

This is a social gathering and intentionally low stakes and meant to be fun and caring and we invite you to show up, grab a drink, bring
friends, socialize and see what these artists have created.
Presented in partnership with Cafe Racer.
