On December 10th 2015 Transmigrant Flow hosted an event at Modernista bar in Beijing in support of Pojie Arts. Six performers presented material from recent workshops entitled "I see you". The work was largely improvised around a structure developed in workshops. It also included film work by Michelle Proksell, to whom we would like to extend our thanks and admiration. The event resulted in the recollection of 3150.5 RMB destined to Pojie Arts' future projects.

"Some of the audience actually said it was one of the best things they'd even watched in their lives! In the art world of Beijing that's a huge compliment". Transmigrant Flow
"This was a reminder to everyone, myself included, of what is truly good and important in the world. So good to show people what it really means to dance and to be free". Charlotte Smith

Pojie Arts statement of thanks:
The kind efforts of Transmigrant Flow and the generosity of all who turned up to last night's event at Modernista have resulted in 3150.5 RMB going directly to Pojie Arts' Beijing projects. Pojie Arts is so incredibly grateful for these funds. We are committed to providing quality arts access for all - thank you for helping us work towards this commitment. Your support quite literally keeps us going from week to week! Pojie currently has no core funding. The pot you've all just helped gather for us would make up a third of one month's running costs. Or, keep one regular workshop running for about 6 weeks. Or, help us organise and translate a resource for groups outside of Beijing who have no access to provision. Your support has already resulted in attracting new artists into the team, raised general awareness and has alerted people to the Pojie's current need. Our deep and sincere thanks to you all!
