Multispecies Salon - Knox Steet Bar

An evening celebrating stories that cross species boundaries, curated by Zoë Sadokierski and Andrew Burrell, hosted by the UTS Visualisation Institute.

Part of our ongoing series of more-than-human story telling events.

​From poetic to darkly funny, this collection of readings and performances reveals how storytelling can shape our understanding of, and responses to, the biodiversity and climate crises.

​What happens when we centre voices beyond the human? When we speculate futures for worlds we are only beginning to inhabit? When we hold both ecological grief and critical hope? This event offers a space to encounter creative works that refuse easy answers—pieces that invite us to sit with uncertainty, to listen differently, and to find new ways of living on a damaged planet.

​Featuring designers, writers, artists and musicians from across the UTS community, this event is for anyone seeking fresh perspectives on our planetary moment. Come ready to be surprised, moved, and challenged.
