This paper attends to the 35 years of learning From Michigan Womyn’s Music Festival. Questionnaire, interview and focus group data from the 2006 festival are used to examine: the physical and social creation of feminist separatism at the site of the festival; lesbian cultures, and the lessons and learning of Michfest, all of which create contemporary womyn’s space. The paper thus offers insights into some of the positive contemporary manifestations of lesbian feminist separatisms ‘on the land’ and concludes by contesting oppositional positioning of lesbian feminisms and post-feminism
