SEQ Queer Writers Festival & Fashioning Queer Identities Exhibition

I’ll be hosting a zine workshop at the 2025 SEQ Queer Writers Festival this year, and also chatting on a poetry panel! My zine workshop will give participants an understanding of zines and zine culture, as well as the tools they need to start working on a small zine on a topic of their choice.

Fashioning Queer Identities
2025 Exhibition
Wednesday, 29th October 2025
5 pm-8 pm
Queensland Multicultural Centre

UNDERCURRENT is a bold multimedia project and exhibition celebrating the richness and diversity of LGBTQIA + expression. Bringing together art, fashion, performance, and costume, the project explores the many queer identities can be revealed, celebrated, or even concealed.

Developed through co-designed workshops, participants shared stories, reflected on life in Brisbane, and uncovered common themes that speak to personal journeys and collective experience. The result is a striking collection of individual and collaborative works that invite audiences to witness, reflect, and celebrate the power of queer creativity.
