Our vision is that our signature model of science engagement contributes to a thriving society, science sector, and ecosystem.

Our Values

Experimentation – We’re a bunch of creative and curious folks. We champion originality, embrace risks, and are comfortable with uncertainty. Science is about asking questions, not reciting facts. By encouraging experimentation, we set the scene for groundbreaking innovation.

Connection – We’re greater together. We’re privileged to be part of a supportive community, and we strive to extend that sense of belonging to everyone we interact with. We prioritise collaboration, and we are committed to supporting and elevating our local talent.

Integrity – In a world of fake news, misinformation, and pseudoscience, we’re an independent and trusted source of truth. We ensure our programming checks out, and put ethical and inclusive practices at the heart of our operations. We do what we say we will, and we do it well.

Our Purpose

Building community through scientific understanding

Fostering social cohesion: We want to build a community where everyone feels they belong, and which shares a common framework for uncovering our most pressing problems and most promising solutions.

Discovery through diversity: We want to contribute to a flourishing and diverse science sector, which becomes an integral and valued part of our culture, and where inclusivity leads to new ideas and better outcomes.

Sustaining our future: We want to celebrate our spectacular environments, incredible wildlife, and awe-inspiring natural wonders, ensuring the systems that sustain us are protected and preserved.

Our Philosophy

At Beaker Street Festival, we create real-world spaces where people come together to connect, explore, and be inspired. We set the stage for the kinds of conversations that matter—those that challenge assumptions, spark curiosity, and bring fresh perspectives to the forefront. By encouraging questions, we help establish common ground and foster understanding across different backgrounds and disciplines.

Everyone is welcome here; inclusivity is at the heart of what we do. We proudly spotlight under-represented role models in science, giving voice to those who deserve to be heard and celebrated. At the same time, we showcase the very best of Tassie—its people, its landscapes, its spirit. And above all, we banish boring science. Through creativity, storytelling, and art, we make science not just accessible, but unforgettable.
