Lady Friends Series
From May to August, Church of the Friendly Ghost presents a series featuring female artists who push the boundaries of art and music. Too rarely are experimental art and new music events in Austin female-centric. In order to at least temporarily reject this truth, (and at best, spark a renaissance) the series stems from the desire to experience several evenings of performance from female artists.
The primary goal is to provide these artists with a space to expand their art form while providing the audience an panoptic impression of the work that women are producing in Austin and points beyond. Lady Friends will focus on media art, performance art, and music that is thought provoking and original. This series will include experimental bands, filmmakers, solo performers, and improvisers.
Additionally, CotFG aims to contrive a new point of ingression for the female arts community that coincides with a focused forum for discourse and networking. The series will culminate in August with our final show as an evening of improvisational works by an all female cast. Alissa DeRubeis and Amanda Lewis are the principal curators.
