The Association of Intersex People Austria (VIMÖ) was founded in February 2014. The aim of the association is to improve the quality of life of intersex people. It is the first association in Austria to stand up for the interests of this structurally discriminated group. Since February 2018, there has also been a local branch association in Vienna.

In May the association celebrated its 10th anniversary with a varied program, political exchange and shared moments with the community. Long-time companions, supporters, friends and family, as well as international guests and politicians were present.

The Linz City Cultural Advisory Board and Linz Kultur invite you to a round table discussion including audience participation at Theater Phönix and to exchange views on the topic of fair pay and fair working conditions in art and culture and ask questions about the status quo, milestones and hurdles as well as future prospects - as part of the information tour of the working group 'pay the artist now!', consisting of representatives of the IG Bildende Kunst and the Künstler*innen Vereinigung Tirol.

M.C.Monster* is a queer-feminist media club that approaches the fantastic genre with a focus on horror. 
In monthly meetings, we screen topic-specific films, read texts, offer lectures, visit and discuss exhibitions, cinemas and evening events. 

At our next meeting, things will get bloody: we will discuss the topic of "Menstrual Monsters" based on the film adaptations of Stephen King's "Carrie" by Brian De Palama (1976) and Kimberly Peirce (2013). We will also discuss a text about menstrunormativity and the term "Menstrual Monsterings" by Josefin Persdotter.

If you would like to engage with this topic, write to FIFTITU% and we will send you our texts and film clips. Or just come along to our next meeting!

On March 31, the Transgender Day of Visibility is celebrated worldwide to draw attention to the struggle of trans people for self-determination and acceptance. Listen to excerpts from the speeches at the Trans Day of Visibility rally in Innsbruck.

Self-reflection and collective thinking

"zusammenLeben" is a feminist art project that focuses on living together and maintaining relationships on an individual and collective level.

The project explores the possibilities and effects that can arise from the connection of individual and collective desire and how utopian impulses can trigger changes in the outside world.

zusammenLeben offers an autobiographical look at the past, present, future, dreams, motivations and ideas of the visitors to SPLACE and the artist as a migrant in Linz.
