Mitch Fest: A Women's Only Music Festival
Mitch Fest was an annual week-long Women's Only Music Festival that ran for 40 years on 600 acres in the forest of Western Michigan. Thousands of women predominantly lesbian attended every year. Mitch Fest had a long and contentious history within the feminist movement. In the early 1990s, the founder Lisa Vogel adopted a women-born women-only policy as a way to exclude trans women from attending the festival.
