About the event
What's a Shatter Party?
A Shatter Party is where YOU join artist Midori in collaboration with Queerly Complex at 465 Collective in shattering ceramics as release, catharsis, and art. Fragments will be collected and installed as part of Midori's Dining Room, an artist-in-residence at 465 Collective.
Bring your own or throw one we provide.
Here's how it works: each person steps forward one at a time, takes a dish in hand, and with focus and intention-smash! The sound rings out, shards scatter, and suddenly there's a bit of lightness in the room. Breaking dishes together can feel surprising, even joyful. It's a way of letting go of unspoken experiences tied to family, culture, or the stress of surviving in today's terrifying world. Mental health professionals will be on hand during the Shatter Party offering grounding, support, and resources.
Oh, and there will be donuts!
