As part of their Bandung Residency exploration of the nail salon as a bridge of solidarity amongst Black and Asian communities, cohort members Myx Lee and Alexander Bondoc will be tabling at this month’s BodyHack activation, a party and community gathering organized by and for those that identify as QTBIPOC. In celebration of Black History Month, ‘Nails at Nowadays’ will be a full nail-salon takeover of Nowadays, a harm-reduction oriented nightlife space in Queens, with a number of nail artists offering free manicures to Black trans folx and raffled press-on nail sets. Sliding scale manicures (gel, press-on, polish) to be offered for everyone else! All proceeds will be donated to the Black Trans Travel Fund and recovery fund for a local community member.
