LesFan.com is a proud sponsor of Women’s Week sponsored by the Women Innkeepers of Provincetown.

We have a long, rich history of supporting women’s week as attendees and by unofficially promoting events first on L-word.com and now on LesFan.com. This year, we have become official sponsors.

Congratulations to Char Priolo – many know her from the wonderful band The Fabulous Dyketones – who is honored tonight at the Community Dinner.

Women’s Week in Provincetown means many things to many women. Whether it’s getting to see the best performers and comics in lesbian culture today, or just getting to walk down Commercial Street holding hands with that special someone, basking in the autumn sunlight and taking in the natural beauty of Provincetown, there is no festival on the planet that celebrates women like Women’s Week.

Over the years, Women’s Week has grown way past anyone’s expectations — scores of performers of all kinds — comics, opera singers, comedians, drag king bands, jazz and blues singers, local talent and international talent — icons of women’s music and new fresh talent just starting out — all come to Provincetown to perform for our crowds during Women’s Week.

There are original plays, our own version of American Idol, walking tours, workshops, meet-and-greet events, the list goes on and on. In the past several years, there is a lesbian literary festival that has grown up inside Women’s Week, featuring the best in lesbian fiction today. Many of our favorite authors, from Bold Strokes Books, Bywater Books, A&M Books, and many others come to do readings and book signings during the week.

Starting on Columbus day each year in October, Women’s Week begins with events to welcome you and ease you into a Provincetown state of mind. Several events during Columbus Day weekend begin the celebratory mood that extends through the following Sunday, with our famous Saturday Night Dance party a fitting crescendo to a fabulous week!

MAKE PLANS TO ATTEND Women’s Week 2015. We are planning some very special FANFICTION EVENTS at 2015 Women’s Week. Don’t miss it!
