Hello and welcome to elissastein.com—I've been wearing many hats these days: consultant, advocate, expert, activist, designer, crafter, and more. Feel free to peruse this site and explore what I've been up to lately and a bit back in the day.

Gurl, Stop, the endlessly topical and entertaining podcast I do with two fabulous fellow activists has been out in the world for more than two years. It's truly must listen.

This year I had the once in a lifetime honor to head up
Cat Ladies Unite! at the
Village Halloween Parade in NYC - it was not so subtle political statement about unity and community.

FLOW: the Cultural Story of Menstruation is the book that keeps on giving. Was delighted to be a part of a very cool project with Condé Nast and Kotex: me talking history and chatting about the importance of open conversation.

 

And, it was recently noted as one of 8 great feminist microhistories at Bookriot. I'll take that.

Crocheting, knitting, collaging, handmade card making, designing, sewing, fabricating, cricut-ing have made it to the mainstage these days. Stay tuned for photos and inspo.

My WASH YOUR HANDS project was/is a bright light in crazy days. Pieces are in a History Responds collection at the New York Historical Society, which is a complete and total thrill. Equally fabulous is that some of that donated work appeared on the cover of Time for Kids. Wow!
