Policy:
Ballroom culture/scene was created by African-American and Latinx LGBTQ+ communities in the 70' in New York City. Balls supposed to be a safe space for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ community, which should be respected by all visitors. WHITE PARTICIPANTS SHOULD REFRAIN (ALWAYS AND IN LIFE BUT ESPECIALLY HERE TODAY) FROM BRAIDS, AFRO WIGS etc. (this might lead to a chop, we are faithful that you will manage to interpret the assignment without appropriation). In light of the continuing climate crisis, we urge you to opt for sustainable clothing choices. Our suggestions include using recycled materials, selecting textiles produced in an ethical manner, purchasing second-hand items, and exchanging clothes with others whenever feasible.
Be respectful for all the people around and their space, and remember, no means no.
