The animation-girls-only party was

FUN! Sorry boys.

Jessica Polaniecki and Signe Baumane dreamed up this ladies of animation dinner party. “Sometimes the animation scene in NY can feel a bit like a boys club and it would be fun to see what happens when we remove the boys.”

Here’s what happens – potluck meal/rooftop drinks/scary stories.

Our small community of lovely artists each brought a yummy dish to the gathering at Signe’s studio. I made this with this.

We drank cold wine on the roof until the rain came, then cozied up in a circle telling creepshow scary stories that somehow all started with “…On a night, just like tonight…”

OMGCHILLS.

Aaand I took this picture. So I definitely photoshopped myself into the group shot. You’d never notice! Probably shouldn’t have said anything, but I’m too proud of my skills.}

Anyway, ladies. Thanks so much for making this happen. It was pretty nice seeing all of you outside the usual film screening or  birthday thing. This was great, we should do this again sometime!

xx ~Joy
