At the heart of this day is an exceptional offering: Six gifted DJs, each bringing decades of experience, passion, and artistry, coming together in three powerful collaborative sets. This is a rare opportunity to experience these artists not in isolation, but in intentional collaboration—blending styles, energies, and musical journeys in ways that are seldom witnessed. Each set becomes a living dialogue, a co-creation that reflects the very essence of the day: connection, cooperation, and shared expression. All artists are contributing their time and talent in support of this community fundraiser—an offering of generosity that makes the day even more meaningful. The Artists: +DJ Poetic A lifelong contributor to conscious dance culture, Poetic brings a powerful fusion of spoken word, deep house, and soul-stirring rhythms. Her work is rooted in awakening, transformation, and the reclamation of voice. With decades of experience as both dancer and facilitator, she creates journeys that move from darkness to light—inviting participants into both personal and collective evolution. +DJ Arctic Fox With a deep reverence for movement as medicine, Arctic Fox crafts immersive soundscapes that invite attunement, connection, and introspection. Her sets are intuitive and expansive, blending genres into a fluid experience where the dance floor becomes sacred ground—where the human and the divine meet. Together, Poetic and Arctic Fox open the day with a collaborative set that sets the tone for connection—bridging poetry, rhythm, and presence into a shared awakening. +DJ Eliazar A cornerstone of Denman Island’s music culture, Eliazar has spent over 30 years energizing dance floors across the country.

His connection to land, family, and community resonates through his music, offering a steady and unifying presence on the dance floor. Together, Eliazar and Co-Captain create a powerful mid-day journey—blending legacy, local roots, and global rhythms into a celebration of community continuity and shared identity. +DJ sprouT With over two decades of experience spanning underground raves to major festivals, sprouT brings a deeply intuitive and heart-centered approach to movement.

More Than a Dance — A Community Experience Throughout the day, participants are invited to engage at their own pace: Stay for the full journey or drop in for a set Rest and recharge in a dedicated chill space Enjoy a potluck snack table, kids’ crafts, and outdoor connection Bring a blanket, water, and a picnic—make a day of it This is a family-friendly, inclusive, and sober space, open to all genders and ages. Rooted in consent and mutual respect, the environment encourages both individual expression and collective awareness. Why May 23rd Matters: In a time where division can feel amplified, this day stands as a counterpoint—a lived experience of what is possible when people come together with intention. May 23rd is not just about dance. It is about building bridges. Between individuals. Between communities. Between ways of being. It is a reminder that through rhythm, presence, and shared space, we can reconnect—to ourselves and to each other.
