Sunday, November 27
11 AM – 4 PM

Montgomery Legion
330 Kent St, Ottawa, Ontario K2P 2A6

The Feminist Twins are proud to present the 3rd annual Feminist Fair taking place on Sunday November 27th at the Montgomery Legion. Kersplebedeb tabled there last year, and we are happy to be there again in 2016 (Ottawa is always nice to visit!) bringing a large selection of books, pamphlets, as well as some relevant t-shirts and buttons!

The Feminist Fair is ALL AGES, pay what you can (no one turned away for lack of funds!), with proceeds going to Ottawa Coalition to End Violence Against Women. They are also accepting toiletries donations for STORM and Building Purple Bridges programs, which support sex trade workers and women at risk.

Some things you can expect to find include buttons, pins, patches, jewellery, clothing, bags, books, zines, prints, art, cupcakes, and more! Come support local artists!

Besides yours truly from Kersplebedeb, some of the other vendors include…

* Anxiety Slug
* astropuke
* Starchild Stela
* Trashy Kitty Jewelry
* Tess Giberson
* Second Aura
* Kel-Lee’s cards
* Country meet City

and more!
