Feminist Periodicals Conference

The 1985 Feminist Periodicals Conference was hosted in Montreal from June 14-16, following similar conferences in 1974, 1975, and 1980. Representatives from 35 feminist publications attended the conference in order to network, attend workshops related to the development of their periodicals, and strategize for the future of feminist publishing. Takeaways included the resolve to stand against attacks on the women’s movement, broaden the base among women of visible minorities, and look into the possibility of a national organization and staff person.

Following the the success of the 1985 conference in Montreal, a 1986 Feminist Periodicals Conference was hosted in Orangeville, Ontario from May 10-12.
