2:30-5:30pm<br>(<a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/554759127944799/?source=1" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold">https://www.facebook.com/<span class="" style="display:inline-block"></span>events/554759127944799/<span class="" style="display:inline-block"></span>?source=1</a>)<br>
<br>Femme skillshare taught by the weirdo femmes sitting in front of mirrors at 3am practicing the perfect eyeliner wings and learning how to cover dark circles in glitter in the a.m. Femme shit is real skills, and we want to hang out and share and talk about it and share our long-practiced craft, whether you've gotten the 3am chance or not!<br>
<br>Doing your makeup 'wrong' is a totally real fear- but we aren't necessarily teaching the 'right' or 'professional way', just the tricks we've learned on how to look good/really bad or whatever thing you are going for, and talk about what this "right way" would involve and then also how to just use the side of your finger and some spit to do the same thing. You DEFINITELY don't have to ID as femme to come learn new makeup tricks, but it will be a femme-centric workshop.<br>
<br>On the docket: eyeliner, eyeshadow techniques; eye-bag covering; eyebrows; makeup colour theory; drag makeup; emergency makeup preparedness (aka taking off your makeup in a jiffy/applying on the bus).<br><br>This workshop will be facilitated by Frankie and Ve, if you have a specific skill you might like to share send a message to Frankie at <a href="mailto:frankie.franxx@gmail.com">frankie.franxx@gmail.com</a><br>
<br>Bring unused makeup to swap afterwards!<br><br>♥ Sat. Jan. 18th - DIY HAIRCUTTING 2-5pm<br>It's easy to cut your own hair!

The facilitators are both self-taught, and have been cutting their own and their friends' hair for years.<br>

♥ Sat. Feb. 8th - ANTI-CAPITALIST NEIGHBOURHOOD MOBILIZATION IN THE SOUTHWEST<br>2-5pm<br><br>In the past two years there have been some important anti-capitalist mobilizations happening in the southwest, with the APAQs during the strike, and with the beginning of neighbourhood contingents for downtown demos in 2013. <br>
<br>Two organizers from these mobilizations (Maria and Cleve) will share some of our experiences and reflections. This will include things we have learned that are useful for this kind of organizing, as well as broader discussion of recent efforts to build radical analysis and militancy on a neighbourhood basis. <br>
