We welcome proposals for a three-day international festival and conference
of performances, exhibitions, academic papers & workshops. 

We ask: can feminist art* change the world and, if so, how?
and we invite responses from activists, artists and academics.

*street theatre :: film :: poetry :: music :: knitting :: zines ::
digital media :: podcasts :: dance :: performance :: painting :: puppetry
:: textiles :: sketches :: pottery :: blogs :: cartoons :: novels :: 
:: comedy :: sculpture :: posters :: comics :: tweeting :: and so on

We welcome people new to presenting and performing as well as those with 
years of expertise and experience. The event is designed to generate action 
as well as debate, and to inspire, celebrate & challenge understandings of 
women, grassroots art & politics. It is a deliberately open invitation - 
surprise us!

Please send draft ideas asap, and full 300-word proposals for papers, 
panels, exhibitions, workshops and performances, plus a 50-word biography, 
by 31 October 2010.
