This year, we are delighted to take part in the Zinneke Parade alongside Sabine, the Giant of Dignity, the Giant of the Undocumented People. Her costume will be a collective artwork: Sabine will become a tree whose roots give rise to dreams of dignity. She will be the heart of our Zinnode.
To make sure everyone can contribute, we need you already now. 👉 It is important to register quickly so that we can plan and create your costume.
🧵 Creation workshops – Theme: branches
The first workshops will take place at Het Anker Rue Marcq 25, Bruxelles, Belgium
- 2 March – 2 pm to 4 pm
- 9 March – 2 pm to 4 pm
- 16 March – 2 pm to 4 pm
There, we will begin the weaving that will form the elements of Sabine’s costume, guided by artists who will accompany us.
🌱 A costume woven by everyone
From early April onwards, the weaving of Sabine’s costume will continue in the church during open workshops. Every visitor, every passer-by, every member of our community will be able to add a thread. A simple gesture, yet one that weaves together our shared dreams of dignity.
🤝 Call for volunteers: “buddies” for people with reduced mobility
We are also looking for volunteers to accompany people with reduced mobility on the day of the Zinneke. A vital presence to ensure the parade is truly inclusive.
🎉 Now it’s our turn: come weave, come create, come walk with us. Together, let’s make this Zinneke a living celebration of solidarity and shared beauty.
