Samesame But Different: What Makes Food Queer
Free event
No ticket required
Sam Low, author and food storyteller, invites you to explore the stories we carry through food, drawing on John Birdsall's essay "What is Queer Food?"
Over shared kai, conversation, and reflection, you'll trace the threads between appetite, identity, memory, and belonging. How are queer lives written into the meals we make, share, and remember?
This is a gathering for anyone curious about that question, with theatre-maker Chye-Ling Huang joining Sam to help shape the kōrero.
Come with an appetite: for food, and for conversation.
