The self-management of the association engages our members, volunteers and audiences.
If you'd like to join us, ask questions, offer your expertise, or organize a project / discussion group...Welcome dans le cerle! 

A new cycle, new encounters.

In partnership with several homes for young asylum seekers,
An afternoon of networking, fun and sharing. • introductory DJing workshop • dance workshop • cook & eat together
Every month, we'll be inviting new experts to share their passions and know-how.
Thanks to Radio Sans Frontière and Horst for making these precious moments possible.

FATSABBATS arrives at Beursschouwburg for a cycle of discussion groups, this time specifically dedicated to adopted and racialized people. Like all good projects, this one starts at the source of our audience's needs, and will be written as such.
It's essential for us to offer a welcoming setting, with regular meetings to share experiences and deepen understanding of these issues.
The idea is to occupy Beursschouwburg for one session a month, so that you can drop in, share and reflect on our specific problems in this area (with little comforting things to eat).

La PROUD d'Anderlecht, organized by LA BARAKAKINGS x VULCANA x CRASH-TEST, invites FATSABBATS to host a conversation on queer parenthood: a vulnerable, intimate subject brought to life by Mac Coco, who will ask concrete questions that we don't often dare to bring to the fore. How do you invent a family format when you're queer? In our system? Through heteronormative formats? 
Aïda Yancy, Samy Soussi and Gabriel Da Costa are invited to share their valuable experiences.
Experts from the Care zone will be Present:

In this heated climate, Our souls burn, Choking our anger. How not to remain fragmented ? Finding the strength to gather around these dissonant realities. Letting go of old dogmas, Confront our fears and limits, Rediscover the power of Outrage, In order to see other perspectives, To remain proud, To catch our breath,
To transcend, To start anew, and Persevere to enable the necessary change.
Two arms won't be enough. Neither will a single night, but let's at least create a moment

of synergy together,eve of Pride, FATSABBATS invites itself to Ancienne Belgique.

Marie-Fidèle Dusingize, sociologist and specialist in Afro-descendant identities, and Ntumba Matunga, journalist and founder of the Tétons Marrons page, to share their expertise and experience of cyber racism on social networks.
The debate will be moderated by Mac Coco from Fatsabbats.

Two of the most vibrant communities that make Brussels gather & dance will finally meet.

The day is dedicated to queer politics and will be presented by Baxter M. Halter.

Two days Two rooms Two atmospheres
FATSABBATS offers the opportunity to ask questions and raise debates and proposals through the following means

Olave and Maya are two black transgender women born in Burundi, who now live in Belgium. They appealed to FATSABBATS to help them realize their simple but very expensive dream of undergoing two breast augmentation operations before Olave's 40th birthday.

Gathering around /

Finding ourselves together in a space-time.

Let's try to create our own rituals / In immersion, towards a change, a transition.

Let's look for ways to care for our energies and vulnerabilities, and to build community.

Let's be our own fetishes.

Homografía invites FATSABBATS to open the show.
For this "black card", FATSABBATS proposes to question the MALE·NESS : their own, but also to weave links with their adelphs.

After its comeback, FATSABBATS, now nomadic, takes over RECYCLART for a new Edition: MOIST OUTDOOR
Let's live in sweat / Let's talk ecology / Let's dance feverishly / Let's activate our glands / Let's get wet together

After learning a lot from the first experience and licking its wounds, Fatsabbats does its FATSABBACK

Atelier 21O invites FATSABBATS and offers us walls and time.

We make ourselves at home for 5 days.
