Lad/yfest South is a non-profit, Southern-based, four-day festival that showcases, celebrates, and promotes the artistic, organizational, and political talents of women in order to raise money for social service projects that assist women. Lad/yfest South occurred in 2002 and 2004; and benefited organizations such as Project Safe in Athens, Georgia; Refuge House in Tallahassee, Florida; DeKalb Rape Crisis Center; Women's Resource Center to End Domestic Violence; Youth Pride in Atlanta.
Featuring talented women from diverse backgrounds, Lad/yfest South includes live music, spoken word, theatrical performances, films, workshops, and meetings. It is an empowering endeavor built upon a foundation of activism and information, and resource sharing mixed with entertainment and fun.

Volunteer-driven and organized by women, Lad/yfest South welcomes everyone-of all ages, genders, backgrounds and communities- to attend and participate.
