Das Autonome FrauenLesbenMädchenZentrum Wien feiert heuer 33-jähriges Bestehen - davon 30 Jahre in der Währinger Straße 59. Aus diesem Anlass organisieren wir ein großes Frauenfest am Samstag, den 15. Oktober 2011 und zusätzlich diverse Veranstaltungen rund um diesen Tag, wie z.B. Erzählcafés zur FZ-Geschichte, Diskussionen, Ausstellungen, Filme und mehr.

Wir laden alle Frauen, die sich dem FZ verbunden fühlen, ein, sich an diesem großen Fest zu beteiligen!

Women have always played an important role in movements for social justice. Using media to transport their messages, to disrupt social orders and to spin novel social processes, feminists have long recognized the importance of self-managed media. In the past two decades an increasing number of women have taken the tools of media production into their hands; a vital social phenomenon that has gone largely undetected by members of the public, academia, and even sometimes the feminist movement.

Marking its 12th year, the International Feminist and Queer Festival Red Dawns is going to take place at various venues of AKC Metelkova Mesto (Ljubljana, Slovenia) between March 8th and 11th 2011.

The organizers invite aspiring artists, activists, researchers and collectives whose works explore issues of the body, gender identity and sexuality, to participate in the festival. Feminist and queer views on other axes of difference and social justice are welcome as well.

Submission deadline: Wednesday, January 5th 2011
