Bay Area Ladyfest 2014
Bay Area Ladyfest is an annual, non-profit event organised mainly by womyn featuring bands, musical and political groups, lecturers, spoken word and visual artists, workshops and discussion groups and are organised purely by volunteers.
The events are focused mainly on encouraging the talent of womyn and girls, and some workshops are womyn-only, so as to make them feel more comfortable, however, main music events and films/art exhibits are open to everyone.
Bay Area Ladyfest and F*cking Sculptures present: Feminist Porn and Self Pleasure: A Dialogue and Screening
6-7 pm: Workshop – A facilitated discussion led by Maria Anne, owner of F*cking Sculptures. Maria will lead the group through a dialogue on the intersections of feminism and self-pleasure, sharing her experiences as both a sex educator and as the owner of a sex toy business.
7-9 pm: Porn – Brought to us from local, queer, feminist producers Pink and White Productions as well as Courtney Trouble of Indie Queer Porn. Giggle, hold hands and even (gasp!) get turned on by seeing some queer love brought to our big screen. Queer porn features diverse performers of various gender expressions, identities and sexualities. A few lucky attendees will go home with some free porn, courtesy of the Crash Pad Series.
9 pm: Meet the performers
- Syd Blakovich (performer, co-producer of Pink & White)
