get OUT-Getty Villa

Hello lovelies,
Here at Creatice Xicana, we (I) are not only about going clubbing or partying or all you can drink Champagne brunch-ing. No No No, sometimes I venture out on my own to do things that are a little out of the ordinary for a fab femme queer socialite :) This caught my eye and I'm hoping to take myself out on a date to go see this AND it will be an excuse to get OUT to the Getty Villa since I have not been there since their remodel/restoration:



Piedra de Sol (Sunstone)
Date: Friday–Sunday, May 14–16, 2010
Time: 8:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, 3:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday
Admission: Tickets $7. Call (310) 440-7300 Get Tickets HERE


The CalArts' Center for New Performance (CNP) presents Piedra de Sol (Sunstone), adapted and directed by MarĂ­a Morett. Based Aztec-influenced surrealist love poem of the same name by the late Nobel laureate Octavio Paz, this multimedia performance weaves passages in Spanish, English and Nahuatl. Complements the exhibition The Aztec Pantheon and the Art of Empire, on view March 24–July 5, 2010, at the Getty Villa.

Note: This program was previously titled Proyecto Azteca.

Lust List-addicted to retail much?

Are you addicted to shoes and purses like I am? Well here's a little something that might make your day!

Get your shop on at Macy's from now until May 4rd, 2010 and use the following code MACYSFRIEND to get 25% off your total purchase (and if you're an on-line shopper like me, if you spend $99 or more you get FREE shipping)




I'm hoping to get some of the following items, what about you?



Would LOVE to wear this shoe with a maxi-dress for my upcoming trip to VEGAS!!




I would love to wear this with some cute flirty dresses





Time to brighten up for Spring/Summer this Kenneth Cole would be grand! (although it's sooo hard to let go of my LV, I love her soo much)


Happy Shopping!!!

*smarty/artsy side*

Hey Everyone,
I just got a hold of this via Facebook so I thought I'd share.

Check this out and submit submit submit!!!


BUTCH Voices is a national organization composed of social justice activists who share a commitment to building inclusive community for self-identified Butches, Studs, Tombois, Machas, Aggressives, our partners and allies.

This year we will be holding BUTCH Voices Regional Conferences in Dallas, New York, Los Angeles & Portland. We invite you to join us for workshops, panels, and performances intended to celebrate our diverse identities.

BUTCH Voices Dallas - June 5, 2010 - contact - bvdallas2010@gmail.com

BUTCH Voices NYC - September 25, 2010 - contact - bvnyc2010@gmail.com

BUTCH Voices Portland - October 2, 2010 - contact - bvportland2010@gmail.com

BUTCH Voices LA - October 9, 2010 - contact - bvla2010@gmail.com

These regional conferences will be an amazing opportunity to create local and regional community awareness, to share butch voices, and critical thinking about who we are. BUTCH Voices Regional Conferences are a place to: talk about why we identify in the ways we do, learn how to tell our stories, address femininity, masculinity, discuss areas of overlap and intersection that are none of the above. We will talk about sex, embodiment, community building, our physical and mental health, and issues that stand in the way of Butch-identified solidarity and justice. Most importantly, BUTCH Voices is the place where we can be ourselves with one another.

This is our Call for Submissions. We welcome workshop ideas of all kinds, films, performances, skill shares, especially on topics which speak to the cultural, sexual, emotional, physical, and psychological relationships that arise in the lives of Butches, Studs, Tombois, Aggressives, Machas, etc. We are open to all perspectives--queer, feminist, womanist, neither or beyond! We particularly encourage proposals by and for people-over sixty, under twenty-one, working-class, and people of color or persons with disabilities.

Deadline for Submissions for BUTCH Voices Dallas is May 15, 2010 and for the other three Regional Conferences is August 1, 2010. Please submit your proposal or abstract to the corresponding Regional Conference (email addresses listed above) in which you wish to present along with a short bio of yourself and any other presenter.

Please forward this widely to all who may be interested in participating.

Thank you,

BUTCH Voices

*****Bliss Weekend*******

Wow so many things have transpired since the last post. Really there are too many amazing things going on in the Queer scene here in LA. I can't keep up. But THIS (I know it's like 7 months away) seriously I want to go so bad but my seester Koko is having her big 30th B-day and I wouldn't miss that. So, I really need someone to go to this and tell me all about it! K? Maybe Koko will concede to having her Bday weekend here next year! Oh and for you Bay Area folks, they had a party bus come down last year..y'all should look into that happening again!

I hear that their hotel block is already 25% sold out. It's going to be a good one, ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!
