Reservation: A Collaborative & Tactile Dialogue

Reservation is an intimate hands-on workshop and non-hierarchal long-table that addresses the reservations FLINTA+ (Female, Lesbian, Intersex, Non-binary, Trans, and Agender) people may face in the creative industry — all while celebrating their rightful place at the table.

Building on the learning garnered during the first iteration of Reservation (produced as part of Melbourne Design Week in 2025), this second instalment will introduce a new – but still characteristically tactile – workshop, hosted in a carefully considered space, designed to foster a collaborative and open-ended experience.

You can view a gentle archive of the 2025 event at yourplaceatthetable.cargo.site.

Wine and non-alcoholic beverages are included in the ticket price.

Melbourne Design Week is an initiative of the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria.
