Loonies Fest
–
September 9, 2017
Friends of East End Loonies are proud to invite you to the first ever LOONIES FEST
This is a special event to mark the 10 years anniversary of our collective, taking the chance to celebrate and honouring people's creativity,individuality and lunacy.
An all-day free festival where visual & performing arts, documented mad history and mad culture, will come together under one roof, giving people the opportunity to celebrate & network. With the Loonies Fest we're producing an educational day for the 'normal' crowds, healing/cosy space for the 'lunatics' and especially entertaining times filled with creativity & inspiration for ALL.
Among other things there will be the art group exhibition "Survivors Stories" specifically dedicated to celebrate the lives and works of those that have lived awful and scary hospital experiences, often left feeling hurt and ashamed by them.
From the souls of Bedlam residents, to those that received lobotomy, leucotomy, ECT, drugged up unconscious, those forced into straitjackets or bed restrains, all the abused and Disabled victims of coercing and traumatising psychiatric experiences, not mentioning worse stuff that might upset some people... This Fest is dedicated to US!!!
The event is open to everyone (not Loonies only!), to free the self from pain & suffering, even if for one day only, gather together to question nØrm@Lity, while having a cup of tea and enjoying some entertainment.
