Hi girls,
How you doing? Here in Brazil we are preparing ourselves for the events
at
the beginning of the year (forum, carnaval and the action in 
Fortaleza). 
I’m in Belo Horizontal where we are organize an event for the carnaval:
"Carnaval Revolucionário". The idea came from the women group from
IMC-Brazil with some other feminist groups from Brazil. At the beginning
we were organizing training for the women about media. Then we decided
to do it during carnaval, then one of the girls were coming with her
band and asked if they could play at the event. So after all that we
decided to make the event something bigger, with workshops, speak-in,
training, debates, shows, theatre etc. This will take the 4 days of
carnaval. I’m sending to you the proposal letter that we sent to the
groups to see if someone want to make something at the event...
We are planning on serving food at the event, the thing is that since we
will be paying the tickets from the people that are coming from outside
the town we will not have any "extras"...So I’m trying to get a grant
for 
it...what we need is 200 dollars but anything will help already...I know
you girls knows lots of people and organization that could help us, I
would love if you could send to me some contacts so I can start to look
for it...)
