WORKSHOP/PANEL, RICH MIX (THE MIX), FREE

Non-binary identities open up thinking about alternative ways of living, as they are inherently "outside" of the standard narrative. They invite us to consider the limits of our imagination in approaches to tackling lots of issues (injustice, climate crisis, LGBTQ+ issues, anything really), and how living in and alongside non-binary identities can be a catalyst for change.

This is a really gentle, reflective, discussion -based workshop, bringing in the work of lots of queer writers and ideas.
