Some of the fabulous women who will be performing at LadyFest, New Orleans 2009 include Marva Wright, Thais Clarke, Charmaine Neville, The Pfister Sisters, Sharon Martin, Doreen's Jazz New Orleans, Mo'Lasses, Ingrid Lucia and of course, David and Roselyn.
We will have arts & crafts exhibits, film and music, poetry and spoken word, supplied by women of all identities to showcase, celebrate and encourage the art and activism of the women of New Orleans and to benefit local organizations that support women.
Our objective is the celebration of an annual festival where women can perform with other women (and men) in a safe, dominantly female-friendly, non-corporate environment. LadyFest is open and inviting to women and men of all ages and backgrounds. Providing venues for women artisans counters the obstacles and discrimination that women too often face, including sexism, homophobia, rape and terror.
We invite any women who wish to participate in LadyFest New Orleans 2009 to contact us
