THIS SUMMER ‼️
WADE is collaborating with the women’s centers La Nara and Rompi Il Silenzio in Italy.
As a women-led organization working at the intersection of art and social justice, WADE is committed to supporting survivors of gender-based violence through movement, music, and somatic practices. Through workshops and community-centered programming, we aim to create spaces for healing, artistic expression, empowerment, and connection.
We are currently seeking support to help cover travel and living expenses for this important residency!
Your contribution will directly support our ability to bring these programs to women and communities affected by domestic violence, while continuing to expand a global coalition of advocates dedicated to healing, equity, and social change.
**Check out our link in bio for more information on how to support our upcoming program!!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at for unspoken//unbroken 💜🌷
Almost a month ago unspoken//unbroken was presented, creating a space of remembrance, resilience, and community. This multidisciplinary experience was made possible by the incredible WADE community and the hands that helped our “Garden of the Taken” grow. Each paper flower represents a quiet gesture of attention, transforming data into a floral archive that makes the unspoken visible.
We are deeply grateful to for hosting us and to the (NYC Department of Cultural Affairs) for their vital support in bringing this vision to life. To our artists, donors, and every guest who moved alongside us—thank you for helping us illuminate these stories with care and activism.
Together, we share the unspoken and remain unbroken.
