Coinciding with Menstrual Health Day, join us to discuss our collaboration with The Open University’s ‘Free to Bleed: Data Driven Advocacy and Art for Menstrual Justice Project.’
‘Free to Bleed’ brings together one of the UK’s largest polling exercises on menstruation, a powerful artistic intervention with artist Wee Nuls, and a programme of public and academic events aimed at transforming how society understands, sees, and legislates, for menstrual health.
So, what can you expect on the day?
🗣️Discussion of the project and key findings of our YouGov poll: The ‘Free to Bleed’ team commissioned a YouGov poll involving over two thousand participants. The survey explores attitudes towards menstrual product provision and public perceptions across a variety of intersections. We’ll be sharing our key findings and recommendations on the future of menstrual justice.
🎨 Wee Nuls discussing her art and practice: While legal changes are important, societal attitudes also need addressed, and in this project, we firmly believe in the power of art for social change. We are delighted to be working with Wee Nuls as our Artist in Residence to produce an artwork relating to key themes in ‘Free to Bleed.’
✨ The craic: We’ll be hosting a period themed craft session along with guest presentations/performances, free nibbles and a drinks reception and, importantly, hearing your views on menstrual (in)justice.
🩸Tickets are free for this hybrid event. Please note that bloody beautiful outfits are encouraged: think a tinge of pink, splash of red, or full out menstrual marvel.
