BEAKER STREET FESTIVAL BRINGS ITS SIGNATURE MIX OF SCIENCE, ART, AND CONNECTION BACK TO LUTRUWITA/TASMANIA
Beaker Street is a cultural organisation and registered charity in Lutruwita/Tasmania with science and community at its heart.
The brainchild of a fun-loving evolutionary biologist, Beaker Street is pioneering a new model of science engagement, where diverse adult audiences are welcomed into scientific thinking and discovery, with a generous serve of merriment, and a distinctly Tasmanian twist.
Since our launch in 2017, our core offering, Beaker Street Festival, has evolved from a nerdy night out into a prominent two-week festival and Australia’s premier National Science Week event every August.
Beaker Street produces science & art experiences year-round, including CoLab, Science Photography Prize, Hobartica Cultural Embassy, Roving Scientist Program, and seasonal Field Trips & Retreats.
FESTIVAL
Beaker Street Festival is Tasmania’s annual celebration of science, art, and culture. Each August, scientists, artists, musicians, chefs, storytellers, adventurers, and audiences come together for a program of performances, field trips, talks, workshops, live music, and large-scale public events.
PROJECTS
Beyond the Festival, Beaker Street brings science and art together all year round. From the Science Photography Prize, Hobartica Cultural Embassy, CoLab and numerous other projects.
