HAPPY INTERNATIONAL ASEXUALITY DAY! 🖤🩶🤍💜

(Jacobin) pigeon + Aegosexual Pride Flag, requested by @kaseth

When we received a pigeon request it was a perfect opportunity to indulge myself and draw one of the flashiest pigeons out there - a Jacobin pigeon! And I had a blast trying to incorporate this specific flag as a plumage pattern. ^^

Today our ace artist has decided to gift fellow Natural History enjoyers who happen to be ace (or know someone who is) with sketches of animals and ace-umbrella flags you've requested some time ago.

Join us throughout the day as we post brand new sketches every couple of hours!

Better late than never, right? We are excited to share with you the full list of panels for our 24h International Asexuality Day Livestream, which starts in… 7 hours! You can access each of the segments of the stream through the QR codes on the second image, or simply by heading over to our YouTube channel when the panels begin https://www.youtube.com/@InternationalAsexualityDay We hope you'll join our amazing panelists from all around the world! On this ocassion, given that IAD falls within Autism Awareness Week, we are not only highlighting the work of ace activists in different countries but we'll be also discovering a bit about the experiences of autistic aces in different parts of the world. There will be asexual artists, activists, educators, writers… and so much more. Check it out!

All images contain Alt text for accessibility, although we will not have live captions for the event, unfortunately. We will work on getting subtitles for each stream segment after the IAD is over 💜

We’re excited to announce the fourth annual International Asexuality Day (IAD), taking place on April 6th, 2024! IAD is a worldwide event dedicated to asexual advocacy, celebration, education, and solidarity, with a special emphasis on countries that have had less ace coverage so far.

Stay tuned to hear about livestreams, in-person meetups and other activist activities that are being planned around the world. We will post about these on our website (https://internationalasexualityday.org/en), and make sure to also follow us Twitter and Instagram (https://linktr.ee/IADofficial) as we’ll also be updating you on this year activities there!

If you are part of an organisation or you’re an individual activist and would like to submit your plans for IAD, please do so by filling in this form .

Celebrating IAD can also be as simple as using the day as an excuse to start a conversation about asexuality in your local area, so don’t feel down if you cannot do something big. Even a repost for other’s activities is enough and can go a long way

If you have any accessibility needs, please reach out to [email protected]. For any other questions or to get involved, you can message us at [email protected]

We have translated the announcement into 12 different languages, which you can find as pictures in this post. Each picture contains the written version as image description for accessibility. The languages, in alphabetical order, are:

Basque

Catalan

Czech

Danish

Dutch

French

German
