Shall V Dance? A Party to Celebrate Love Without Violence

By Santanu Ganguly, New Delhi: V-D A N C E, a party to Celebrate Love without Violence, is a One Billion Rising Event. Over 450 of you joined us at Engendered in protesting against gender violence and injustice through ART. You came to experience, to express; you came to speak out; you came to RESIST.

Join Us Again as V Resist, V Rise and V Dance on the eve of V-Day as we mark the International Day of Action on Violence against Women.

Date & Time: Wed, Feb. 13, 2013, 7 pm onward

Venue: Olive Bar & Kitchen, New Delhi
One Style Mile, Mehrauli, New Delhi

7 pm onward:

  • Live Jazz
  • Display of Wall of Solidarity (Work in Progress)
  • Slide Show of Art Work & Installations at RESIST (for those who could not see the show on the 2nd)

9 pm onward:

  • Live DJ Sets
  • Lots of Dancing

In attendance will be artists and designers who helped us RESIST.

Free before 9 pm. Cover Charge after 9 pm.


V DANCE to continue to RESIST, this time by celebrating difference and individual choice- by dancing and expressing pride in our self, our bodies, our sexualities, and in believing that Love is possible without Violence. We dance to take back the night.

On the eve of V-Day, we mark the International Day of Action on Violence Against Women, and Valentine's Day, by standing up for love without violence, and by saying, loud and clear, that protesting for your rights is not only about speaking out, but is also about letting your hair down, and just being who you are, painted and dented or not!

For those of you who missed RESIST, you can catch a glimpse of what happened on the Feb. 2. Also, the Wall of Solidarity that we started with artists at RESIST, has received an overwhelming response, and is still growing. Come have a look on Feb. 13 as a part of the Wall is released- and help it grow by bringing your own 1 x 1 canvas, and showing solidarity by adding your own creative mark to it!

It’s time V strike; it’s time V change; it’s time V dance; it’s time, once more, that V RESIST!
