Evenementdetails
Over dit evenement
BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Utrecht is proud to present a collaboration with Mama Cash for International Women’s Day, 8 March 2020. The Mama Cash Feminist Festival celebrates all that feminist movements around the world have fought for and achieved. It also looks forward, as visitors collectively imagine what a more feminist future would look like.
Please join BAK on Sunday 8 March 2020 for the full day program Collective (Ex)change, a gathering of and for local and international activists and artists who are working to make spaces safer for women-identified and LGBTQIA+ people. By bringing together creative advocacy groups from different parts of the world in conversation with local collectives, the program explores complements, contrasts, and intersections of current feminist and LGBTQIA+ activist practice, and possibilities for collaboration across borders and contexts.
The program features lectures, music, panel discussions, artistic interventions, and more! With contributions by Amal Alhaag, Rosalba Icaza Garza, the collectives Proyecto Intersexual, Trans Mreža Balkan, SEHAQ, Queer Refugees Group, Colored Qollective, and Tender Center Rotterdam, and a rock band formed at the annual Femix Serbia's Girls Rock Camp. Moreover, local intersectional feminist bookstore Savannah Bay will be there with a selection of queer and feminist books to choose from during the break!
