A Women’s Afternoon at Mona

You know that burning, slightly itchy question about your vagina you keep putting off asking your doctor? Well we’re bringing the doctor to you (the fabulous women’s health doctor Natasha Vavrek), and we’re pairing her with booze and canapés and Kirsha Kaechele — a great asker of uncomfortable questions.

We’ll start at “Cunts… and other conversations” (it’s an artwork), move into the Ladies Lounge for High Tea (canapés, cocktails, and conversations aplenty), and end at a musical performance. Join Kirsha and Dr Natasha for dinner at Faro afterwards if you like.

What’s included — Ladies Lounge High Tea ($180)

- VIP entry to Mona at the time of your choice

- A small-group conversation with Dr Natasha Vavrek from The Bubble Hobart, facilitated by Kirsha Kaechele

- Reserved seating at Colin Offord’s 4pm musical performance in the Nolan Gallery

Optional Add-on — Dinner + Drinks + Art at Faro ($250)

- 5-course dinner (with drinks included) at Mona’s Faro Bar + Restaurant, with Kirsha Kaechele and Dr Natasha Vavrek

A Seat at the Table
Beaker Street Festival's pay-it-forward initiative, A Seat at the Table, helps make our science and art offerings accessible to those who can't afford to purchase a ticket. Ticket buyers have the option to donate towards the cost of a stranger's ticket. You won't know who you've helped, but your donation will go directly to allowing someone else to access this great event.

Need a seat at the table? Email: seatplease@beakerstreet.com.au with your name, email address, post code, your age (if you don't mind - it helps us gather data), which event you're interested in, and whether you would like one or two tickets. Your information will never be shared or made public. If we can offer you a seat, we'll notify you by email within a week of the event.
