BGC2017

Our first convention was hosted by Arnolfini Bristol, and over 60 womxn* joined us for an afternoon of networking, a panel discussion, live music performance and inspirational speakers.

Mena Fombo also launched her photography exhibition No You Cannot Touch My Hair, the inspiration behind the TEDxTalk of the same name.

The convention was a uniquely intergenerational experience. It spoke to the idea
that; no matter what stage in life, black women have a unifying experience and
sentiment that draws them together and creates a warm and safe space.
