A paper poster inviting Brighton Dykes to the manifesto launch event at the Actors in April 2025.
The Brighton Dyke Collective participated in a manifesto-writing workshop with Exploding Appendix in early 2024, and the manifesto was created as a group effort to set the tone for the Collective's future.
The event was designed to celebrate dyke culture with performances, an arm wrestling station, and a table for Queers for Palestine, selling copies of the DC manifesto as part of the regular fundraising effort at the Actors.
The DC put these posters all around town, in The Queery, at the Universities, pubs, coffee shops, and bars.
The event was a great night, with our Chair MCing, poetry from local dyke poets, music, and a reading of our manifesto to finish the night, read by members of the collective.
Dykes on Decks is an underground electronic music event created in 2022. The event platforms new queer DJs, giving them an opportunity to play their first DJ set out in a club in a supportive, fun and somewhat chaotic environment.
