It's nearly Mardi Gras and we are very excited!

The lovely people at Scarlet Alliance have extended an invitation to Sex Party members to join them and other sex worker groups and supporters on the sex worker float that will be taking part in the Mardi Gras Parade on Saturday the 3rd of March - Woohoo!!

Supporting sex workers and their rights is very important to us, so we urge everyone who would like to take part in the parade to join us in marching alongside our sex worker comrades.

Scarlet Alliance and other sex worker groups and supporters are marching under the theme "Save Decriminalisation For Sex Workers Health and Safety in NSW". Here's a link to their facebook page.

While the sex workers float colour theme is red, Sex Party members are asked to wear our yellow party t-shirt ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ). All marchers on the float will also be required to carry a red umbrella (the international icon for sex workers rights.) There will be limited spare red umbrellas you may be able borrow for the march, but if you have your own please bring it along. (Mardi Gras is notorious for rain, so it might be a good idea to invest in a beautiful red brolly anyway.)

To get involved:
• Interested marchers need to RSVP by calling 02 9690 0551 to let the organisers know they'll be marching. Leave your name and let them know you are with the Sex Party.
• On 3rd March at 3pm, meet at Scarlet Alliance's offices and become part of the fun. The address is 9/245 Chalmers St Redfern (cnr Redfern St), about 5mins walk from Redfern railway station.

Join us, and let's march loudly and proudly down Oxford Street!
