StellaFest to stop violence against women
A digital festival with artists from all over the world dialogues with gender inequality as well get traffic to their new TikTok account
According to Stella McCartney website, Stellafest is a digital festival with an exclusive line-up of diverse artists from our global #StellaCommUnity. Running 9 to 12 July of 2020 on Instagram Main Stage and the newly launched TikTok (@StellaMcCartney), performances were shot at home by headliners including Kelis, Taylor Hawkins, Brian Wilson and more. Committed to raising our voices for female empowerment, Stellafest supports the mission to end violence against women – an issue that has worsened during lockdown.
Artists will also be offering exclusive experiences in Stellafest’s charity auction, running 8 to 22 July, produced in partnership with Mastercard and in support of The National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV). Prizes include: a virtual studio visit with Stella McCartney plus a signed one-off garment; a cooking class with singer Kelis; and a signed copy of Alicia Keys’ book “More Myself” alongside a 10-minute discussion with her, with more to be shared shortly via social media. The Stellafest charity auction can be accessed at Priceless.com/Stellafest.
Ending violence against women is a pillar of Stella McCartney’s values-led mission, with the global estimate of 1 in 3 women experiencing physical or sexual violence in her lifetime. In the United States, surveys show women of colour, including Native and Black women, report higher rates of physical and sexual violence and experience higher rates of homicide compared to white women.
