Plan B and contraceptives remain legal in Texas after U.S. Supreme Court ruling on abortion In the same decision that overruled Roe v. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court was clear that the constitutional right to access contraceptives remains untouched — though one justice said he would welcome challenges to that right.

Texas Visual Arts Collective is putting on a benefit show on April 14th and 15th in West Mall, and we would love for members of your organization to join us. We will be selling original art prints and featuring live art to fundraise for Jane’s Due Process, a non-profit that helps young people in Texas confidentially access abortions and birth control. After the passing of Senate Bill 8, we saw the importance of supporting abortion and reproductive rights.

Come join us for a great time of art, music, and philanthropy! We really hope to see your organization out there!

Where: West Mall
When: April 14th - 15th, 2022 from 3 to 7PM
What: Benefit Art Show held by TVAC

All proceeds will go to Jane’s Due Process!

Thank you so much and hope to see you there!

Best.
Texas Visual Arts Collective

Jane's Due Process We support young people in Texas as they access abortion, birth control, and legal services to ensure their full reproductive freedom.

Posted • The Q***r & Trans Student Alliance and Feminist Action Project at UT Austin are hosting our Annual Conference on April 24th, 2022 in the William C. Powers J. Student Activity Center (WCP) on campus. This year’s theme is “Resisting Normative Embodiments” and we are currently accepting panel and workshop proposals. /////
Submissions should address activism through an intersectional approach and encompass concepts that transcend the dialogue found in everyday media. We are looking for workshops that create a modern q***r/feminist framework our attendees can utilize in their everyday activism. Whether it is a presentation, round-table discussion, workshop, or interactive seminar, all proposals are welcome! /////
Our goals for the conference are: including the experiences and perspectives of both students and community members, prioritizing 101-level introductions to theories and movements, highlighting the complexities of identity in relation to the q***r, feminist and other communities, and to put a special emphasis on language and space.
Submissions should be consistent with the theme and goals. We welcome academically-oriented proposals as well as practical and activist ones, but we prefer interactive models such as discussions and skill-building workshops.
