Art as Propaganda Workshop Series
Join Radical Women and guest presenters for a workshop series that explores the interconnections between art and activism. Each month learn a different skill and history of a radical movement, then create art for a specific community action. Newbie and experienced artists and activists all welcome. Let's get together and make art to push the revolution, and celebrate the beauty we can create outside of the capitalist gallery system!
Oct 10: The Heresies Collective + Political Zines (Paulina McFarland and Lex McQuilkin of Art XX Magazine)
Nov 14: Fashion as Protest and Inspiration: Queer, Punk and Freak Fashion (Rachel Hospodar and Rachel Steinbeisser of Pandora's Trunk)
Dec 12: The Suffragettes + Protest Banner Art (Hannah Blair)
The workshops will take place the second Saturday of each month, 2-4pm at New Valencia Hall, 625 Larkin St, Suite 202 in SF. Workshop fee is $10-20 sliding scale, materials included. For more information, please call Rachel at 415-864-1278 or email baradicalwomen@earthlink.net
