  • Presented by: Melbourne Fringe and Linden New Art

Join a relaxed conversation with Linden New Art’s Curator and this year's Design Fringe Designers, whose work offers critical and progressive ways for us to reimagine our societies, politics and ideals.

Featuring three designers from the exhibition including Genevieve Douglas-Byrnes, Marta Figueiredo and Georgia Anne; join us as they explain how their works address the exhibition theme, what inspires them and the materials and techniques they use. There will be plenty of opportunity for visitors to ask questions as we move through the gallery.

This event will be Auslan Interpreted on request and will require minimum 48 hours notice so we can ensure an interpreter is available. Please email projects@melbournefringe.com.au and we will be happy to provide this service.

This project is supported by the Naomi Milgrom Foundation
