Festivals: Ladyfest & Queer-Feminist (324)

"LadyFest

This year's edition of the City of Women Festival http://www.cityofwomen.org/ will address the topic Between Past & Future. The conceptual background relates to the eponymous book by Hannah Arendt who, back in the 1960s, argued that the condition of human existence, robbed of the traditional, transcendental, religious and moral standards employed to bridge the abyss between past and future, lost direction.

"This is the first year of Ladyfest Northwest here in Humboldt County California. So far we have a line-up of great artists and hope to be able to achieve the goals of ,#1, having a great time and seeing some great musical performances #2 providing some awesome workshops/demonstrations such as filmmaking, clothpad making, and stilt-walking, for example, and #3 to be able to donate some $ to local women's organizations, like Women for Shelter. Many of these plans are tentative and in the works and much of it's success depends on people who care about these issues to get involved.

"Ladyfest er en arena for opplevelser, underholdning og inspirasjon. Tanken bak er å vise fram kvinner som skapende aktører, samtidig som man skaper møteplasser for utveksling av erfaringer, feiring og debatter.

"Lady..was?! Ladyfest!

"ABOUT LADYFEST
Ladyfest provides an opportunity for visitors to discuss and take action on their views on topics such as misogynism in the arts and beauty standards. It allows people attend shows by female performers,and have a good time in a space where they felt comfortable to be themselves. Ladyfest is a breath of fresh air to male dominated corporate sponsored music festivals where only a handful of women are "lucky" enough to perform every year.

HER-STORY OR CUNT-ROVERSY?

"LADYFEST NORWICH 2010
so what the hell's all this talk of LADYFEST NORWICH then??

well....this year marks the tenth anniversary of LADYFEST, a worldwide festival that celebrates female creativity. as a born and bred norwich resident, it became apparent that being such a purveyor of gender equality in creative industries, norwich was missing out on all this lady action and celebration. SO, on the 31st july, after partying it up with the norwich pride parade, norwich arts centre will host a unique display of female talent from local shores and further.

Ladyfest Berlin will happen from 16th to 19th of September 2010.
