Want to get a heads up on the book of the month before anyone else? Want to be on the VIP list for special offers and deals? Well, get on the list and you’ll be officially in the FBC loop!
![Tonight on the Feminist Book Club community we're welcoming Vic Liu to wrap up our April theme, women in art 🎨
In this discussion we'll be diving into the representation of women and non-binary folks in art, making an impact through art (especially activism), and accessibility in art.
You don't need to be familiar with Vic's work to join us!
You can join if you: enjoy graphic novels, are curious about art and how artists do their work, are an artist yourself, want to know more about using art for activism, have ever been moved by art.
Additionally, Vic's work has touched on masturbation education (for all genders and abilities) and humanizing mass incarceration, so folks interested in either of those topics can also get something out of it.
Not a member, but want to check out the event? You can sign up for a free trial by heading to the link in our bio!
See you there!
