About this Event

New queer youth led book chat is here!

Bring along your favourite queer fantasy or sci-fi read and join a relaxed, welcoming space to chat. Share your ideas and connect with other young people. Whether you’re into novels, memoirs, comics, or anything in between, all interpretations of “queer text” are welcome.

📅 When: Monday 29 June, 4:30–5:30pm

📍 Where: Hobart Library, Literacy Room (Level 1)

🎯 Theme: Queer Fantasy & Sci-Fi

👥 Who: Senior secondary students (ages 15–19)

🎟 Spots: Limited to 12 participants

Snacks provided and the vibe is low key and friendly. There’s no pressure - just come along, listen and chat as much or as little as you like.

This is a new monthly series, so it’s a great chance to help shape a regular queer youth gathering centred around stories, conversation and community.

Bookings required.
