Spring and Summer are my favorite times of the year!!
One of the reasons for that is because people seem to come out of their houses and come to cool events. When I was in high school the go to event was Warped Tour, now that I can't stand to be within a mile of a Warped Tour I am so glad that Grrl Fair exists to fill that festival void in my life.
Grrl Fair is an awesome organization that seeks to promote women in the arts in Southern California, and more specifically Orange County.
A typical Grrl Fair hosts artwork from girls/women, local female vendors, workshops and more!
Some things to look forward to at this year's Grrl Fair are:
2PM: Really Really Free Market!
Bring stuff you don't want anymore and barter with other people. You can't get anymore DIY and progressive than that :)
2PM: Record Swap Meet with Mass Media Records
2PM: Cleansing Drum Circle with Aly Miguel
All day: Workshops in the "Workshop Village" including speakers, feminist clubs from various colleges, and much more.
Bands!
Some bands I am excited to see at Grrl Fair this year are:
The Death Valley Girls a garage-y Cramps-y feeling band from LA.
!Las Feas a surf punk band from the Coachella Valley
Tigersnap an electro-punk-hiphop act from LA
May 11th Y'all, did I mention that there are going to be food trucks???
