Message from our Artistic Director, Mikhail:
I want to thank each and every person who came out and supported our Move for Jamaica Dancehall Party Grooves Fundraiser. Jamaica is my home, and it’s devastating to see what our people are going through after Hurricane Melissa. So many families have lost their homes, their stability, and the spaces that once held their memories. Seeing the Vancouver community show up with so much love, unity, and generosity truly touched my heart.
We literally moved for Jamaica 🇯🇲
A small island that has given the world, and all of us, so much culture, strength, and energy. When Jamaica needs help, it means everything to see this community stand with us. This fundraiser was a huge success, and every donation is going directly to families rebuilding and recovering.
The vibe in the room, the connection, the respect for the culture it reminded me why community matters so deeply. Jamaica, we stand with you always. We will continue to take action and give back everything earned to support those in need.
Special shout outs:
for donating the space and making this event possible
for bringing the music, energy and pushing the culture forward
for always showing support
demmm for collaborating with us and helping create this moment
Thank you to everyone who donated and showed up. This was a truly beautiful community effort, and we are deeply grateful for every single one of you.
Community is powerful. Culture is powerful. Jamaica to di world ❤️💛💚
