Last month we launched our inaugural issue of our member magazine, Chronic Mischief! Over 100 people turned up to Ainslie Arts Centre to celebrate with us, to check out the exhibition of artworks featured in the magazine, and hear presentations from our policy officer Pippa Newman, our Our Autonomy team leader Beatrice Tucker, and our CEO Kat Reed.
Chronic Mischief is a magazine for WWDACT’s members, by WWDACT members. Therefore, we want to extend a huge thank you to all the members who submitted their artwork & writing – this could not have happened without you.
This publication provides a space for people to have their works celebrated and stories told and heard. Discussion about us is often describe as a burden, boxed by diagnoses, and allocated to funding categories. This erases the depth of who we are, be that cheeky, sexual, staunch, hot, soft, gentle, asexual, daring, tenacious, or sometimes even well.
Through this magazine we celebrate our talents, experiences, fulfilling lives we lead and our passions. This magazine is where women, non-binary and gender diverse people get to share whatever we would like to share, as we see it.
Given the response to the magazine, we are now low on copies. That said, we are doing a second print run soon so nobody will miss out! It will also be up on our website in digital format shortly – watch this space.
