Event description

Voices from the Edge events seek to celebrate difference and offer opportunities for people, who have been marginalised, to be heard and seen. This first event will foster important conversations and ongoing connections within our community and enable local people from the LGBTQIA+ communities to share stories about their experiences. The event will include musical performances, artwork, poetry, drama and facilitated discussion between artists and audience. We welcome you to attend, enjoy the program and ask questions that help you understand more. You may hold strong opinions, you may be confused, you may just want to know how to be an ally.

In 2025 we hope to codesign more events focussing on living with disability, being young and facing life issues and living as a First Nations person in our community. These powerful events move marginalised voices to the centre for a brief time and we hope they will inspire ongoing conversations, connections and changes for all who participate.

We are located on the unseeded lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, and are committed to serving our local Hills community. At

our heart is the wisdom and teachings of Jesus which include deep

listening, compassion, hospitality, justice and loving one another,

especially marginalised people.

We are comfortable with all faiths/denominations and gender diversity. We are collaborative and intergenerational. We believe ourselves to be friendly, and understanding, and seek to explore spirituality and contemplation, and hope to evolve and grow as individuals and as a community.

We are connected to, and committed to our community, hoping to offer those who are marginalised a place to feel safe. We are grounded in justice and think outside the square.
