Words shape our identities, our worlds, our future.

How often do we explore the meanings that we assign to the words we use? How can conversation bring us closer to each other? What if we could use spoken and written words to create a better future? Join us for a guided exploration of the transformational possibilities of words, voice and language.

The Salon of Reflections is a public living room for the exchange of ideas. 

The Salon of Reflections combines guided small-group conversations with an immersive installation experience, designed to stimulate learning, exchange and connection. You'll encounter new perspectives, opinions and stances in a relaxing sensory environment. 

What to expect:

  • Permission to pause – An inviting space to unplug, unwind and tune into the present moment. 

  • Unexpected connections – Guided small group interactions that foster expansive, surprising conversations.

  • Audience-led explorations – Audience-led discussions, guided by prompts and provocations to inspire new perspectives.  

Who should attend?

  • Artists, writers and creatives looking for fresh ideas and invigorating conversation.

  • Anyone looking for a moment to slow down, connect and learn with a supportive community. 

The Salon of Reflections is a safe space for women, gender diverse and LGBTQ+ folk, and people of diverse cultural backgrounds and faith expressions. When entering the space, we ask everyone to practice our values of openness, curiosity, learning and care.

Cost

General ticket price is $15. However, to make this event accessible to the community, we have a $0 community ticket available at the checkout.

The Salon of Reflections aims to be an inclusive community experience. If you have accessibility requirements, please contact the hosts and we will do our best to accommodate.
