Herstory, the Irish women’s storytelling movement, has partnered with The Stairlings as well as RTÉ, Underground Films, EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum and the BAI to create the Herstory 20/20 Project. A storytelling platform like no other, the project uncovers fascinating women’s stories from history, mythology and contemporary culture.
The EveryWoman Project is a celebration of trans women and non-binary femme identifying folk in Ireland designed by young trans women to create a positive representation of trans people, to inspire confidence in others and to develop relationships with other members of their community. It’s an opportunity to say ’thank you’ for the community spirit which these women do so much to sustain, and to recognise the need for positive representation, which in turn helps to make life tolerable, happy and fulfilled for the younger generation.
The Stairlings Collective themselves are an intergenerational LGBT+ history research collective initiated by artist Alisha Doody in 2018. Central to the EveryWoman project are Alexandra Hall and Jules Farrell. The Collective shared that the women being celebrated in this event are representative of a community who have faced exclusion from Irish society but still act as a beacon of hope for others who may be struggling.
