F.A.G club presents...
the never grow up weekender!!!
ever felt like peter pan? us too!
we never want to grow up. we will resist their time.
be silly. party.
dance wildly. sing. bellow. play. create. carnival.
make our own definitions of what it means to grow
up, or not define
ourselves at all....
at fag club we wanted to hold a party that signals
both a rejection
of
and our collective resistance to heteronormative
conceptions of time
such as progress, maturity, linearity, growing up,
getting a mortage
and
having a family...being queer for us is about
rejecting these
frameworks
for living as we are intent up creating our own forms
of play, desire,
family, culture and time that is disruptive,
unpredictable and
creative.
we also offer an intervention into the carnival
calender that offers
particular times in which we are allowed to publicly
celebrate our
queerness, eg the weekend in september when it is
mardi gras which is
becoming an increasingly commercialised spectacle.
what we need are
genuine forms of community and visibility .
the never grow up party is a d.i.y event, that means
that people will
be
coming together and learning new skills in order to
make it happen. it
is
open to your input and ideas so please get in touch
fagclub@riseup. net,
