Feminist voices from South West Asia, North Africa and Europe come together, speak out and perform during Tashweesh festival.
Tashweesh festival is back!
Tashweesh is the Arabic word for rustling, hubbub, murmur. Many voices come together in the unintelligible murmur of a crowd. Tashweesh festival, which travels between Brussels, Tunis and Vienna, will hear these murmurs come closer before taking the stage.
Audiences, artists and speakers from South West Asia, North Africa and Europe join a glocal conversation to imagine a feminist and connected society spanning across seas and borders.
Through performances, conversations, reading groups, screenings, concerts and club nights, we seek common ground beyond perceived cultural boundaries. We talk about stereotypes, queer and trans utopias, gender, bodies, public space, activist strategies and feminist revolutions.
This year’s edition was conceived together with co-curators Bochra Triki and Tania El Khoury. Read their words here.
See you soon!
https://tashweeshfestival.com/
in partnership with L’Art Rue (Tunis), Tanzquartier (Vienna) and Goethe-Institut Brussels
with the support of the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union
Tashweesh Festival was originally initiated and conceived by Christina Nord and Johanna M. Keller in collaboration with Tom Bonte, Nedjma Hadj Benchelabi, the team of Beursschouwburg and a network of co-thinkers. Its first edition took place in 2018 at Beursschouwburg with satellites in Cairo and Tunis.

"I knew about racism, I knew about homophobia, and I knew about Islamophobia before the publication of my book. What I didn't know then was what great power resided in the act of expressing oneself freely and daring to speak from the heart publicly about these issues."

“Our vision is less about the finished pieces, and more about the process, the collaboration, the motivation, the aesthetic and political potentiality of each and every artist. The festival does not claim to give voice to artists and activists, but rather to learn from them by conversing with their practices.”
