'Women of Fire' presented by Queen Victoria Women's Centre and Mother Tongue

We invite you to an inspiring evening of spoken word, storytelling, and performance.

‘Women of Fire’

This one-off special event celebrates the powerful voices of women and gender diverse individuals who identify as women. The evening will feature a curated lineup of some of Melbourne's most inspiring voices. Five passionate poets, including Fleassy Malay, and Sevgi Boga, will take the stage, sharing their lived experience while you soak up the magic, leaving you inspired and energised.

Mother Tongue is committed to amplifying and equipping women’s voices. Passionate, Powerful, Vulnerable, Honest. Don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to celebrate and support the rise of women’s voices!

‘Women of Fire’ is a hybrid event, offering both in-person and online attendance (Digital Fringe), for expanded accessibility.

Queen Victoria Women’s Centre and Mother Tongue Poetry acknowledge that we live, work, and create on the lands of the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation—land that is and always will be Aboriginal Land.

There will be light snacks and alcohol-free beverages available for purchase, and a small break between sets.
