ʘ‿ʘUPDATE: There will be more tickets released on May 1 at 10am and May 2 at 3pm. Also, day-of, walk-in tickets are typically available but the museum advises anyone who is looking to walk-in to arrive early.
Kung Flow is taking center stage at Brooklyn Museum’s First Saturdays in May! We are fusing sound, movement, arts & culture into a multidisciplinary, global dance party celebrating Asian-American creativity. Our set will feature some amazing collaborators: an interactive dance performance highlighting AAPI queer voices by Samaw Dance Company, wardrobe design from upcycled East Asian fabrics by Izzy Li Kostrzewa of Isaboko, and stage design by visual theater artist Maria Camia.
The event is free but registration is required and includes Museum general admission. Tickets will be released on April 13 for the public.
Can’t wait to make magic with y’all!
- Ben, Jordan, & Justina

FEATURED CREATORS:
💃 Samaw Dance Company (@resonancedancenyc) is a Brooklyn-based, AAPI-led company directed by choreographer @davidcartahenalee, creating work that uplifts AAPI+ and queer stories through street and club dance forms alongside contemporary and jazz practices. For this performance, they’ll share excerpts from their repertory alongside solos and interactive moments, moving through contemporary and house dance. Then join them on the dance floor for a follow-along session with house grooves and waacking.
👚 Isaboko (@isaboko_) is a clothes-making project dedicated to turning vintage kimonos and obis into new pieces, and honoring the weavers, dyers, and silkworms of the original materials. Every piece they make is made from discarded textiles + zero waste patterns. They will also have a booth at the museum!
🎭 Maria Camia (@themaricama) is a Brooklyn-based, Filipino-American Visual Theater Artist and Introspective Hypnosis Practitioner who has dedicated 13 ongoing years to creating Aricama, the land of practice play and healing in pursuit to make imagination useful in a traumatized society.
