April
20th - 22nd - Never Grow Up Weekender!
ever
felt like peter pan? us too!
we never want to grow up. we will resist their time. be
silly. party. dance wildly. sing. bellow. play. create.
carnival. make our own definitions of what it means to grow
up, or not define ourselves at all....
at fag club we wanted to hold a party that signals both
a rejection of and our collective resistance to heteronormative
conceptions of time such as progress, maturity, linearity,
growing up, getting a mortage and having a family...being
queer for us is about rejecting these frameworks for living
as we are intent up creating our own forms of play, desire,
family, culture and time that is disruptive, unpredictable
and creative.
we also offer an intervention into the carnival calender
that offers particular times in which we are allowed to
publicly celebrate our queerness, eg the weekend in september
when it is mardi gras which is becoming an increasingly
commercialised spectacle when what we need are genuine forms
of community and visibility .
the never grow up party is a d.i.y event, that means that
people will be coming together and learning new skills in
order to make it happen. it is open to your input and ideas
so please get in touch fagclub@riseup.net, we would love
to hear from you.
the
events will take place over the weekend of april 20-22
