JESS DUCEY

Jess is a writer, producer, fundraiser, and event manager. They spent the last nine years in Aotearoa New Zealand, where they were a regular Naked Girls Reading performer, a dancer in queer ballet Sapphic Lake, co-founder of Queer AF, Wellington's first queer arts festival, and creator of Unfinished Business, in which artists shared in-progress works over a three course dinner in their flat. Their writing has appeared on Radio NZ and is forthcoming in Landfall. Jess enjoys nature, knitting, elaborate dinner parties, public transit, books, learning to clown, cheese, and cycling (slowly!) around the city. Find them patting every dog in Astoria or at @thejduce.
