'Lunar Intersections' Zine Launch and Community Event: Sydney Edition

About

🌙 Join us for a VERY special edition and launch of a zine, marking and celebrating the emergence of Lunar New Year and Ramadan on the same day in 2026. As the moon ushered in the start of Ramadan in mid-February, the year of the fire horse began.

📚 Spanning poetry, photography and art from Kuala Lumpur, Sydney and London, ‘Lunar Intersections’ is a collaborative, cross-cultural project exploring this convergence and overlap of two of Asia’s largest observed traditions, uplifting our shared cultures and celebrating the intersections and nuances of Asian identity.

🔖 We are not only sharing and launching the zine, we are also putting on a community-led evening filled with artists, organisers and activists alike across both cities, Sydney & London, simultaneously held on the same evening, Saturday 28 November.

🍥 Food, music, henna, and art workshops will all be available! In Sydney, there will be spoken word performances, and in London, there will be a light panel talk on the importance of independent filmmaking and art.

🪷 Everyone is more than welcome! Come with your family / friends or solo and make some new friends! Expect good food, music and interesting people and conversations!

☁️ We would love to share the zine with all of you, a labor of love from all the contributors and editors spanning continents and we offer it as a gift taking the shape of a 红包 ( red pocket 🧧), wishing you good fortune, happiness and blessings.
