LILAC Discussion Group

The discussion group is going really well and we are keen to keep up momentum, so we are shifting the date for the March session to avoid a clash with the fabulous LILAC Quiz Night.

The next session will be on Friday 21st March, 5.30 - 7.30pm. We will continue our exploration of Intersectional Feminism, with consideration of Holly Lawford-Smith's view, as well as whether there are any forms of feminism that are not intersectional.

Tea and coffee available, or BYO snacks and refreshments.

If you have any questions about the group, email lilac@lesbian.net.nz with 'discussion group' as subject.

This is a discussion group for LILAC members that meets on the last Friday of the month (usually), to discuss a range of topics, from intersectional feminism, issues particular to older and younger lesbians.


Coming out meetup.

Lesbian coming out meet-up
Saturday 17th May 2-4pm

A [mostly] monthly event hosted at LILAC for women who have recently come out, or are thinking about coming out as lesbian, to meet in a relaxed and supportive social environment. Pass it on - let your friends know!
Held on the third Saturday of the month ... but skipping Easter in April.


Clippings.

Sue's Clipping Exhibition: Portrayal of Lesbians in the print media, 1994-2024

Sue's clippings exhibition has returned - it's an exhibition of clippings from Sue's archive illustrating how lesbians have been portrayed in news media over the last 30 years. The exhibition was displayed in late 2024 as part of the celebration of LILAC's 30th anniversary.
There are links on the About LILAC page to recordings of two brief talks given as part of LILAC's 30th anniversary celebrations.
