Opening our winter congregation is another round of Speed Dates/Mates/Fates, with Miss Vixen hosting Tarot-guided interactions and breaking the solstice ice. Ever wanted to customise your wardrobe? Liz Eldritch will be leading a hand sewing workshop, where you’ll learn the three most essential stitches and sew-on your very own Lesbian Vampire Cult patch. Complete the evening revelling in the sounds of Mara MacDonald, who blends ethereal ambience and tremulous tension with effortless wonder and devastation.
Capacity for Speed Dates/Mates/Fates will be limited due to space constraints and to preserve an accessible atmosphere, so please arrive on time if you want to guarantee a spot. Needles, thread, fabric, and a Lesbian Vampire Cult patch will be provided for the sewing workshop, but feel free to bring any clothing or accessory you may want to stitch.
For the first time, Sacrament is opening beyond FLINTA* borders as an alternative and experimental queer space. This is home for the creatures and freaks, where your innermost selves can claw and bite their way to surface. Many of its themes are sapphic, though strictly trans-inclusive across the gender spectrum. Cis men who are comfortable in their gender, this probably isn’t the space for you. If you are unsure whether or not you’ll feel welcome to SACRAMENT, contact @lesbianvampirecult for clarification.
There are also free tickets available to Aboriginal and First Nations people, for which you can DM @lesbianvampirecult or email rosette@lesbianvampirecult.cam for the access code. Concession tickets are available to anyone, for any reason.
Mamma Chen’s acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, the true owners of the land that we live and operate on. We would like to pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
