Ladyfest kicks off.


If you’re in New York City this weekend, make sure to visit the infamous Ladyfest*East, which will take place in Williamsburg, Brooklyn this year.

Ladyfest stemmed out of the Riot Grrrl movement, which originally focused on women in music, “setting themselves apart from the prevalence of bustier-wearing, hip-undulating pop tarts.” Ladyfest, on the other hand, organizes an annual weekend-long festival where women can exhibit a range of different work, which includes music, film, visual arts, performing arts and literature.

The activities vary from live music and film screenings to craft fairs and burlesque shows. I don’t know about you, but these ladies sound like some fun-ass feminists to me.

Also, check out Cristy C. Road, who’s responsible for the awesome drawing above.
