Girls' Day Out

Next Saturday, 22nd May, some of us Samba Goddesses are having a girls' day out to see the exhibition "Hats: an anthology by Stephen Jones" at GoMA (Gallery of Modern Art, South Brisbane). Join us for a fun day!

The exhibition is the result of a collaboration between London’s Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) and one of the world’s foremost milliners, Stephen Jones. Exploring the fascinating world of millinery, the exhibition presents more than 250 hats and iconic headpieces from the V&A’s extensive collection and Jones’s own archive.

The plan is:
> Meet at GoMA entrance 11 am next Saturday 22nd.
> See the exhibition
> Maybe make a hat
> Have late lunch together afterwards at the cafe on-site

Admission is free.

Even if you are not a girl but would like to explore your feminimime side, you are welcome to come along. Just expect to be treated like a little brother. :)

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are coming, allow for the fact that traffic will be very heavy in South Brisbane next weekend, as Paniyiri Festival is on. You may want to use public transport.

"Maybe make a hat" - let it be a pink & green one! I'll throw in a couple of vouchers for the best 'pink & green' hat!

"Even if you are not a girl but would like to explore your feminimime side". Why use so many words? Just 'Brian' will do.

PS: there's also an exhibition at GOMA from the guy that made ginormous statues of people, including a 3 meter baby or so. I haven't seen it yet but will have to. You may want to have a look while you're there.
