Tender Center (represented by Yin Yin Wong and Katherine MacBride)

Tender Center is currently eleven people and a space who go by these words: We are a collective of anti-racist feminist queers who are building the beginnings of a community center for culture; or a venue for queer events; or a les university of life in Rotterdam. Tender Center is a relational infrastructure and venue with parties, agitation, co-learning, bodies in varying states, gardening, (s)words, conversation, workshops, food, diy darkroom, curry, and a solid sound system. Tender Center is a not-for-profit association, and they are currently running on funds from their own small pockets and the energies of those who support them. Their thanks go to all their lesbian trans* feminist queer p.o.c friends, and wider ltqbgipq communities and allies, for creating a space for music, art, poetry, politics, hanging out, and care of all queer kinds.

Tender Center Rotterdam is the place to go for all who seek to question heteronormativity and want to bask in queerness. TC is feminist. TC is a trans* space. TC welcomes refugees, asylum seekers, and others affected by immigration systems. TC likes dancing in the daytime. TC is a place to gather and generate energies that overspill its boundaries. TC has a problem with categories, even self defined ones.

Tender Center will be represented by two of its members Katherine MacBride and Yin Yin Wong.
