hi !
long time no speak /post/etc
i (anna/anna marie/chana miriam (the latter two being more updated names)) realised the other month that it would be ten years since the first girlcon was held in mayday rooms on the 25th -26th of july 2015.
ten years is ofc a long time ! & it got me thinking about whether there was anything nice to do or if anyone would be interested in some kind of âreunionâ or something, so i thought iâd post here some of my own ideas for potential things on the off chance anyone who did come might see it & have feelings one way or another.
we could have some kind of little get together - i'm sure some ppl are still in london, and others are more dispersed (i am one of the dispersed!) so it would probably have to be on zoom or something! (altho ig if u wanted to try an in person meet up then we could) but we could do some kind of zine / craft meet up, which feels kinda in-keeping with the vibe of girlcon... talk abt how our lives have changed... how are values have stayed the same or how much we've learned... or just chatted abt what makes us happy in this difficult world or talked abt literally anything else
i donât think i ever got my act together & released the second girlcon zine⌠i think i have most of it in storage so i could try & finally publish it all together by the end of the yr! & if you have work you made at girlcon (!), you could always send pdfs/copies to me to compile it together [but dont email the girlcon email address, i have no idea what the password for that is at all ! instead u can email me at [email protected] ]
any ideas other ppl might have or feelings they might wanna share abt the experience / looking back / what has changed !
if u dont wanna chat on tumblr then u can email me at [email protected]
but also if no one is interested in doing anything thatâs totally fine too !! sending much love & solidarity to all of ya !
the plan is to meet for a zoom call hang out / crafting / chill session on the 25th of july at 6:30!
if u wld like the zoom link for the meet up plz message & i'll share it w u ! <3
