GenderBlender Weekend July   4 - 5 - 6

GenderBlender Weekend July 4 - 5 - 6

The weekend of 4th, 5th and 6th July will also be centred exclusively on GenderBlender.
On 4 July a full-day conference will be held at Natlab, followed by a special GenderBlender evening programme. Then on 5 July the programme will be tying

in with Pink Saturday. And for those who would like to take this opportunity and dress
up as a member of the opposite sex: on Sunday 6 July you can visit none other than Louis(e) De Ville from Paris (famous for her Dragking Soirees Garçonnes) and Danny Cordromp. Drag queens and kings galore!
