The New Venus

The New Venus: ‘The New Woman’ is an event exploring the expression, strength, power and emotion of womanhood today. Through storytelling, music and art we celebrate women from all walks of life and experiences and aim to bring women’s identity to the forefront.

We are bringing over 40 artists including musicians, poets, dancers, singers, storytellers, DJ’s, live bands and visual artists together. Some of the artists joining us include: Belinda Zhawi, Sara Hirsch, Andrea Phillips, Kay Davis, VJ Von Art, Morganico, Thieu, Barka, Eli Domoney, Amy love, Lauren goodsmith, Harah Veavall and more.

The afternoon provides various workshops from women's organisations, talks from Ishapebeauty, Making Herstory, presentation’s on DIY beauty products from Cel&Keta and Djying. Upstairs we welcome ‘WOMEN IN RODA’ showcasing women in capoeira through talks, workshops, and interactive performances.

We will be winding the evening down with live art and performances, music and poetry. To close we invite you to celebrate one year of Starving Arts with an after party headlined by talented female DJ’s http://bit.ly/1jLDhQ7
