To celebrate the launch of our third issue, ‘Stories of Collision’, Soft Stir is throwing a big ol’ party at Firstdraft. Packed with DJs, live music, video installations, virtual readings, and more, it’s set to be a night of colliding encounters.

Dance to the sultry hip-hop jams of Nazty Gurl, the high-energy club cuts of Rydeen, and the left-field reverberations of E3P. Witness the ethereal sonic poetics of Marcus Whale. Watch the intimate making of the magazine through Janush’s CRT TV installation, wander through the exhibitions programmed by Firstdraft and eat succulent delights from Wok Boi.

And of course – grab a copy of 'Stories of Collision' available for the first time and fresh off the press. Bundle your party ticket with the magazine for a hot deal.

Soft Stir acknowledges that this event, and all of the work that we undertake as a collective, happens on unceded land. We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which this event takes place, the Gadigal people. We pay our respects to Elders past, and present who continue to care for Country, extending this respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.
