Welcome to Ladyfest Brisbane's Blogging Project!
Hello and welcome to the blog for Ladyfest Brisbane.
Ladyfest Brisbane is a non-profit, community based festival that reflects the skills and interests of women. Originally launched in Washington in 2000, Ladyfest was devised as a platform to showcase, encourage and celebrate the talents of women and girls around the world. Coming to Brisbane in September, Ladyfest will feature performances by bands, art and photography, workshops and panel discussions, as well as an art, craft and bake fair.
Our goals are:
* To inspire ladies of all ages to become active creators of art, not just consumers.
* Equal representation of women and girls in the arts.
* To build a sustained, supportive community for women in Brisbane
* Increased respect and acceptance of female artistic endeavours amongst media, venue bookers, record labels, and other industry gatekeepers.
We want to use this blog to provide a space for lots of interacting, talking, commenting, communicating, from now and right through Ladyfest in September. Keep an eye out for special Ladyfest guest bloggers - there will be a new one each week (if we can get enough people to agree to be involved)!!!
