Ladies of Leisure Workshop Series
Get tips on everything from 'anti-dance' to managing anxiety from this local lady collective.
Overview
Ladies of Leisure — who you may know from their kickass zine, and associated parties, short films and apparel — are bringing back their workshop series for a second year, kicking off on November 22. LOL's workshops are all about creating a safe space for female creatives to grow and up-skill, and the event emphasises its inclusion of people of all orientations and identifications.
On Saturday, November 26 the Socially Conscious Careers panel will discuss how you can incorporate social justice into your career without limiting your options. On Wednesday, November 30 Amrita Hepi will present the Feeling Myself 'anti-dance class' — a movement workshop about listening to your body which will finish with a guided meditation. The last workshop Thursday, December 1 Burn Bright, Not Out workshop will provide participants with strategies for managing stress and anxiety, before the series culminates in a three-day market at Junior Space in Fitzroy.
