Where are the women? Here they are!

During our research at Bristol Feminist Network and Bristol Fawcett in to the representation of women in the media, we discovered that women are all too often absent from our cultural landscape.

On Monday 10th Jan, we are trying to change that, with a cabaret line up packed with amazing women performers.

We will be celebrating the talents of women musicians, dancers, poets and film makers.

This event promises to be a true celebration of the creativity of women, in a society where all too often women's talent is pushed aside.

Come along and help us celebrate!

Where: The Cube, Dove Street South, Bristol
When: 10.01.2011 from 8pm

Featuring:

Lenny Savage - singer
Shagufta Iqbal - poet
Stephi Briggs - bellydancer
Eye to spy - filmmakers
I am fish - band
I am horse - band
Ana K - filmmaker and singer
Jen Steiner - singer
Christine Zaba - speaker

We will also be featuring Jan Martin reading some of the poems and prose from her recent workshops with survivors of male violence.
