Audacious entertaining art.
- Hour, March 2009
Runs the gamut from video and performance to intervention, installation, theatre and dance. Or, most often, a hybrid of all possible forms.
- Montreal Mirror, March 2009
The Edgy Women Festival pushes performance to its furthest reaches, revealing just how complex and multifaceted women – and society in general, relationships, community, feminism, art itself – really are.

EDGY WOMEN 2012
THE DEADLINE FOR EDGY WOMEN 2012 HAS PASSED
Studio 303’s annual feminist fiesta presents a programme of politicised, experimental, and playful performance as well as workshops and lectures.
Edgy Women presents performance work with a feminist flavour by emerging and established professional artists of any gender. While the festival spotlights work by women, we are keen to show work which whether overtly or not, addresses contemporary and ever-evolving issues around gender and/or feminism.
Edgy highlights new artistic practices, non-verbal expression, and content-driven work that pushes form. For artists who have not yet presented work at Edgy, we recommend that you submit finished pieces vs. new creations. Honorariums are paid, but there is no budget at this time for travel or hosting expenses.
