Pride is a feeling that influences one’s sense of self from the bottom up. While gradual, progress is being made to embrace solidarity and acceptance of the LGBTQIA2S+ community without caveat – celebrating the true essence of self-expression, solidarity and purpose.

Van Vogue Jam is a Vancouver based non-profit organization that offers weekly pay–what– you–can and open–to–all–levels vogue classes and events. VVJ was founded in 2017 by Ralph Escamillan to support, build, and nurture the Vogue/Ballroom scene within Vancouver. Ralph’s goal is to share the culture and experience of vogue, contributing towards a growing culture of dance and safe spaces for the LGBTQIA2S+ BIPOC community.

The objective of this project is to assist Van Vogue Jam in the completion of a website re- design (for desktop screens) to increase community involvement, measured by increases of event attendees, donations, and website engagement.
