OBR Festival is seeking visual artists for Feb 2016!

The One Billion Rising Festival is seeking visual artists to join their exhibition from 7th to 14th February 2016 at The Bread & Roses Theatre in Clapham.

With the first ever One Billion Rising Festival at The Bread & Roses Theatre in Clapham (South London, UK), we join the international OBR action with an eight day creative campaign, featuring performances, workshops, talks, exhibitions and more.

One Billion Rising is the biggest mass action to end violence against women in human history. The campaign, launched on Valentine’s Day 2012, began as a call to action based on the staggering UN statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. With the world population at 7 billion, this adds up to more than ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS. For three years - 2012 to 2015 - people across the world have come together on February 14th to express their outrage, strike, dance, drum and RISE in defiance of the injustices women suffer, by demanding an end at last to violence against women, accountability, justice and systematic CHANGE.

In 2016, the theme of Revolution continues with a call to focus on marginalised women and to bring national and international focus to their issues; to bring in new artistic energy; to amplify Revolution as a call for system change to end violence against women and girls; to call on people to rise for others, and not just for ourselves.

The OBR Festival at The Bread & Roses Theatre is set-out to reach out to and engage people on many different levels by offering a diverse line-up of events and creative activities.

We are now seeking visual artists to display their work around the theme of violence against women and girls during the festival. This can be both previous existing work, as well as art specifically inspired by the One Billion Rising Revolution campaign. If you would like to send us more details about your work and find out more please email info@goblinbaby.com . Deadline is midnight on December 31st.

After a successful start to 2014 we are all set for some busy and engaging months ahead of us.

Goblin Baby's next production will be a one-night-only benefit production of Eve Ensler’s award winning play:

The Vagina Monologues
on March 16th at 6pm at The Space

With over a month to go, tickets are already selling so we recommend to book asap!

This year's special benefit performance is presented as part of V-Day’s campaign ONE BILLION RISING FOR JUSTICE, a global call for women survivors of violence and those who love them to gather safely in places where they are entitled to justice and release their stories through art, dance, marches, ritual, song, spoken word, sit ins, and testimonies.

Therefore, we'd also like to invite you to join us and many others on 14th February 2014 at 12.30pm to rise for justice in London in Trafalgar Square!
